  • Patent number: 6582288
    Abstract: A diaphragm for a chemical mechanical polisher is composed of a rubber layer and a fiber layer. The size and shape of the diaphragm are suitably designed according to a gap and relative shifting between the rotary unit and holder to prevent creasing of the diaphragm and thereby decrease friction with a sidewall of the rotary unit and holder. The fibrous layer can improve the strength of the diaphragm in order to improve the lifetime of the diaphragm, reduce the frequency of maintenance of the polisher, and increase throughput.
    Type: Grant
