Abstract: Disclosed is a chemical mechanical polishing pad formed at a polishing surface thereof with micro-holes each having a desired cross-sectional area while having a desired depth. The shape, size, and density of the micro-holes can be optionally adjusted. The chemical mechanical polishing pad provides an effect of maintaining a desired polishing rate during a polishing process. In accordance with the present invention, the micro-holes can have diverse arrangements depending on given process conditions.

Abstract: A composition is provided for preparing a polyurethane elastomer, which is of high hardness and excellent abrasion resistance. The composition comprises a urethane prepolymer with an unreacted isocyanate content of 5-22% by weight, made from the reaction of a mixture of an aromatic diisocyanate and a cycloaliphatic diisocyanate in weight proportions of 1:0.1 to 1:5 with a polyol having a weight average molecular weight of 200-3,000; and a curing system comprising a mixture of an aromatic amine and an alcohol in weight proportions of 1:0.3 to 1:3, said alcohol comprising a multifunctional alcohol and a polyol, wherein, when the equivalent ratio between the prepolymer and the curing system is set as 100 in terms of index, they are mixed in the index range of about 70 to 200. The prepolymer is suitably controlled in viscosity and reactivity as to provide effective workability.

Abstract: Disclosed is a chemical mechanical polishing pad formed with holes, grooves or a combination thereof. The chemical mechanical polishing pad is characterized in that a plurality of concentric circles each having grooves, holes, or a combination thereof are formed at a polishing surface of the polishing pad. The chemical mechanical polishing pad provides effects of effectively controlling a flow of slurry during a polishing process, thereby achieving a stability in the polishing process in terms of a polishing rate, and achieving an enhancement in the planarization of a wafer.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for forming micro-holes, perforated holes, and/or grooves on a polishing pad using a laser beam and a mask. This method involves the steps of determining a pattern of micro-holes, grooves, and/or perforated holes to be formed on a polishing pad, inputting the determined pattern to a computer numerical control (CNC) controller, selecting a mask corresponding to the determined pattern, positioning the mask under a laser device, parallel to the polishing pad, and driving the laser device adapted to irradiate the laser beam and a table adapted to conduct a three-dimensional movement and rotation while supporting the polishing pad, under the control of the CNC controlled, thereby irradiating the laser beam from the laser device through the mask onto the polishing pad according to the inputted pattern.

Abstract: Disclosed is a chemical mechanical polishing pad formed at a polishing surface thereof with a plurality of concentric wave-shaped grooves having different radiuses while having the same shape. Each groove has a desired depth, width, and shape. The chemical mechanical polishing pad provides effects of effectively controlling a flow of slurry during a polishing process, thereby achieving a stability in the polishing process in terms of a polishing rate, and achieving an enhancement in the planarization of a wafer.
