An experimental study on the effects of abrasive particle sizes on polishing phenomena
The effects of abrasive particle size on polishing phenomena during wafer planarization. are investigated using a high precision polishing process test bench with in-situ measurement technology. The present experimental results are found to be comported with the experimental and theoretical data published previously. The current experimental outcomes can help to understand the polishing mechanism and develop the relating theoretical model.
