Popis: | Duel Emission Laser Induced Fluorescence (DELIF) and friction measurements are taken in-situ during CMP to observe slurry flow beneath a model of an integrated circuit (IC) wafer. Friction measurements average around 7.5 lb and multiple frequencies are observed. Slurry film thicknesses on the order of a 10±3μm were observed during CMP of a flat wafer. The film thickness seems uncorrelated to friction measurements except when the pad and wafer rotation speeds are significantly slowed. DELIF has also accurately measured a 9μm etched step, with noise in the image equal to ±3 μm. |
