Abstract With the development of integrated circuit technology, especially after entering sub-micron process, reduction critical dimensions and realization high-density devices, flatness between material layers is becoming more critical. Because conventional mechanical polishing methods inevitably produce scratches same size as device in metal or even dielectric layers, resulting depth field focus problems lithography. The first planarization technique to achieve application spin on glass...
This study investigated the effects of particle size and pH SiO 2 -based slurry on chemical mechanical polishing for film. It was found that removal rates surface roughness material highly dependent pH. As varied, main mechanism reasoned to provide activation energy erasure. In addition, affected Zeta potential, which had an important effect strength action polishing. The change in greatly influenced rate. According experimental results, best film achieved with 40 nm abrasives when 4.

During the industrial application of new phase change memory material carbon-doped Ge2Sb2Te5 (GSTC), it is necessary to perform planarization for confined cell structure through chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) process. The goal CMP acquire a high removal rate and selectivity while ensuring that polished surface free scratches corrosion pits. A acidic slurry added with potassium persulfate (OXONE) as an oxidizer was developed. 5000 ppm OXONE has amorphous GSTC film 5200 Å min−1, between...
As a third-generation semiconductor material, silicon carbide has excellent electron mobility and band gap, which makes it shine in power optoelectronics applications. 4H-SiC the highest gap of all crystal type SiC; chemical mechanical polishing technology is only effective global planarization process today.
