    摘要: The present invention relates to a substrate holding apparatus for holding and pressing a substrate against a polishing surface. The substrate holding apparatus includes a top ring body for holding the substrate, an elastic pad for contacting the substrate, and a support member for supporting the elastic pad. The substrate holding apparatus further includes a contact member mounted on a lower surface of the support member and disposed in a space formed by the elastic pad and the support member. The contact member has an elastic membrane for contacting the elastic pad. A first pressure chamber is defined in the contact member, and a second pressure chamber is defined outside of the contact member. The substrate holding apparatus also includes a fluid source for independently supplying a fluid into, or creating a vacuum in, the first pressure chamber and the second pressure chamber.

    摘要: A carrier device is adapted for use in a polishing apparatus with a turntable having a polishing surface. The carrier device includes a carrier for carrying an article to be polished and a control device operatively associated with the carrier. The control device includes an actuator operable to cause the carrier to urge the article against the polishing surace of the turntable to polish the article, a sensor operatively associated with the actuator and operable to sense a pressure as applied to the article when the article is urged against the polishing surface of the turntable and a control unit operatively associated with the actuator and the sensor so as to monitor the pressure during a polishing operation. The control unit is operable to control operation of the actuator in response to the pressure as monitored so as to keep the pressure at a target level and halt the polishing operation when the pressure is deviated from a predetermined range over a predetermined period of time.

    摘要: A polishing apparatus is used for polishing a workpiece such as a semiconductor wafer to a flat mirror finish. The polishing apparatus includes an enclosing structure having an outer wall and at least one door, a polishing section enclosed by the enclosing structure for polishing a surface of a workpiece by holding the workpiece and pressing the workpiece against a polishing surface of a turntable, a sensor for detecting an opening or closing of the door, and an exhaust system for exhausting ambient air from an interior of the enclosing structure. The polishing apparatus further includes an adjusting mechanism for adjusting an amount of air which is exhausted from the interior of the enclosing structure. The amount of air exhausted from the interior of the enclosing structure is reduced by the adjusting mechanism when the door is closed, and the amount of air exhausted from the interior of the enclosing structure is increased by the adjusting mechanism when the door is opened.

    摘要: A polishing apparatus applicable to a dry-in/dry-out polishing system is capable of increasing the capacity of processing substrates to be polished, e.g. semiconductor wafers, per unit of time and per unit area of installation. A polishing unit includes a turntable having a polishing surface, and at least two wafer carriers each adapted to hold a wafer and to press the wafer against the polishing surface. Each wafer carrier is supported by a pivot shaft and movable between a polishing position where the wafer is polished on the turntable and a transfer position for transferring the wafer. The at least two wafer carriers can be situated at the polishing position simultaneously and also alternately.
