Patent number: 8177603Abstract: Polishing pads for use in chemical mechanical planarization (CMP) or polishing elements/surfaces of such pads are made from a combination of immiscible polymers, for example polyurethane and polyolefin. The polymers are selected on the basis of interfacial interaction, melt index and ratios of melt indices between the polymer phases—a matrix phase and a dispersed phase. By selecting the polymer system such that the two polymers are immiscible in one another and preferentially form separate domains, the dispersed phase can be removed when conditioning or polishing processes expose it. The melt index of individual polymers and the ratio of melt indices determines dispersability of a smaller phase into the matrix, hence the phase size.Type: GrantFiled: April 28, 2009Date of Patent: May 15, 2012Assignee: Semiquest, Inc.Inventor: Rajeev Bajaj

Publication number: 20110014853Abstract: A polishing method, a polishing pad and a polishing system are provided. In the invention, the polishing pad is used to polish a polishing article. The polishing pad includes a polishing layer and a surface pattern disposed in the polishing layer. The polishing layer includes a polishing surface, a rotating central region, and a peripheral region. The surface pattern includes many grooves distributed from near the rotating central region and extending outward to near the peripheral region. The grooves include many groove cross sections along a circumferential direction of a same radius. Each of the groove cross sections has a left sidewall and a right sidewall. An included angle is formed by the polishing surface and one of a group of the left sidewalls and a group of the right sidewalls. The included angle is an obtuse angle.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 21, 2010Publication date: January 20, 2011Applicant: IV Technologies CO., Ltd.Inventor: YU-PIAO WANG
