Description

Conditioning Disc for Polishing Pads {CONDITIONING DISC FOR POLISHING PAD}

The present invention relates to a conditioning disk for a polishing pad, and in particular, it is possible to fundamentally prevent the falling of the cutting protrusion generated during the conditioning operation, and to prevent scratches caused by the dropped abrasive particles and foreign matter remaining on the polishing pad. A conditioning disk for a polishing pad.

In general, chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) is a polishing method developed to compensate for the disadvantages of mechanical polishing in which a modified layer is formed and the disadvantages of chemical polishing in which high shape precision cannot be obtained. In addition to the plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) and reactive ion etching (RIE), it is essential to fabricate submicron scale chips.

Such chemical mechanical polishing is maintained in that it is possible to obtain a high shape precision without forming a deterioration layer as described above, but during the operation, foreign matter such as abrasive particles, tributes and pad debris is generated on the surface of the polishing pad. Blocking the pores of the pad has a disadvantage that planarization of the wafer is impossible. In order to prevent this, the chemical mechanical polishing apparatus maintains the porosity of the polishing pad by conditioning the upper surface of the polishing pad, maintains the flatness by suppressing the non-uniform deformation, and slurry the numerous pores of the polishing pad. A conditioner including a conditioning disc is provided to smoothly supply the gas.

As the above-described conditioning disk, it was common to use a diamond pad conditioning disk having diamond particles attached to one surface thereof in contact with the polishing disk to enable micro cutting of the polishing pad to be conditioned. As a method of attaching diamond to the diamond pad conditioning disk, there are methods such as brazing, electroplating, and sintering.

Meanwhile, conventionally, an oxide line mainly using chemical vapor deposition (CVD) was mainly used, and in the case of the oxide, the corrosion problem was not very important because the polishing slurry was used at an pH of 5.5 or higher. However, in the process of developing and changing semiconductor technology, metal lines (P, W, Al, Cu, etc.) using PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) are increasing.In this case, work is being performed on strong acids with pH less than 2.0. Due to the corrosion of metals, diamond dropping caused a problem of semiconductor defects. In fact, unlike oxide lines, diamond pad conditioning disks have to be replaced for only 5 to 7.5 hours. .

Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a conditioning disk for a polishing pad capable of increasing resistance to falling off of a cutting protrusion generated during conditioning.

Another object of the present invention is to improve the polishing performance of the cutting projections by making the cutting projection shape a polygonal pyramid shape.

In addition, another object of the present invention is to provide a conditioning disk for a polishing pad that can prevent scratches caused by debris of the cutting protrusion particles and the foreign matter remaining in the polishing pad during the conditioning operation.

In the polishing pad conditioning disk according to the present invention for achieving the above object, in the polishing pad conditioning disk comprising a disk body and a plurality of cutting protrusions protruding on one surface of the disk body, the cutting protrusion is a polygonal pyramid shape It is characterized by that.

On the other hand, the material of the disk is characterized in that made of ceramic, diamond and boron nitride compound (CBN). At this time, the conditioning disk for the polishing pad is made by sintering the nano powder of ceramic, diamond and boron nitride compound.

In addition, a plurality of foreign matter discharge grooves are radially formed on one surface of the disc body in which the cutting protrusion protrudes, and each unit foreign matter discharge groove is formed in a spiral shape.

The conditioning disk for a polishing pad according to the present invention has a cutting protrusion in the shape of a polygonal pyramid, so that the polishing action is actively performed at the corners of the polygonal pyramid, thereby increasing the polishing efficiency.

In addition, by sintering the nano-powder of the ceramic, diamond and boron nitride compound (CBN) it is possible to increase the resistance to the falling off of the projection during conditioning.

Furthermore, foreign matter discharge grooves are provided in the body of the conditioning disk for the polishing pad, thereby preventing the scratches due to them by discharging foreign particles remaining on the polishing pad and the cutting protrusion particles dropped out during the conditioning operation.

With reference to the accompanying drawings will be described embodiments of the present invention;

Each part of the polishing disk 100 for conditioning pad 100 is described in more detail as follows.

First, the disk body 110 is formed in a disk shape having a predetermined thickness. The cutting protrusion 120 protruding from one surface of the disc body 110 is formed in a triangular pyramid shape so as to easily cut the polishing pad. However, the present invention is not limited thereto and may be manufactured in various shapes as necessary. Cutting protrusions 120 may be added to the chromium or nickel to prevent corrosion and increase the strength.

On the other hand, a plurality of foreign material discharge groove 130 is formed on one surface of the disk body 110, the cutting protrusion 120 protrudes as described above. The foreign substance discharge groove 130 is for discharging the abrasive particles, tribute and pad dregs remaining on the surface of the polishing pad to the outside, and maintains the porosity of the polishing pad by discharging the foreign matter, and maintains uneven deformation. In order to suppress and maintain flatness, the slurry is smoothly supplied to the pores formed in the polishing pad.

At this time, the foreign substance discharge groove 130 is preferably formed in a plurality of radial in order to effectively discharge the foreign substances generated in the whole portion of the polishing disk 100 for the conditioning pad. In addition, each unit foreign matter discharge groove of the foreign material discharge groove 130 is formed in a spiral so that the generated foreign matter can be easily discharged from the polishing disk conditioning disk 100 in the rotational movement to the outer peripheral surface of the disk body 110 It is preferable that the diameter is formed to increase gradually.
