Currently, most semi-conductor plants adopt the conventional chemical coagulation and sedimentation process to treat chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) wastewater. This treatment process consumes a large quantity of coagulants, and its optimum pH operation range is rather narrow. This treatment process produces huge amounts of sludge and is hard to operate due to the unstable characteristics of the abrasive slurry of CMP wastewater. The purpose of this research is to establish a pilot plant which consists of chemical pretreatment, ceramic membrane microfiltration, carbon filtration and reverse osmosis system, which will allow the reclamation of the CMP wastewater. Actual CMP wastewater was sampled and treated in the pilot plant. The results of the pilot tests demonstrated the viability of the treatment scheme and provided data for scale-up calculations. Cost per ton of CMP wastewater reclaimed was calculated using the operating data established, and compared with the conventional chemical coagulation and sedimentation process.

The uniformity of the wafer in a chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) process is vital to the ultra-fine and high integration of semiconductor structures. In particular, the uniformity of the polishing pad corresponding to the tool directly affects the polishing uniformity and wafer shape. In this study, the profile shape of a CMP pad was predicted through a kinematic simulation based on the trajectory density of the diamond abrasives of the diamond conditioner disc. The kinematic prediction was found to be in good agreement with the experimentally measured pad profile shape. Based on this, the shape error of the pad could be maintained within 10 μm even after performing the pad conditioning process for more than 2 h, through the overhang of the conditioner.

Chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) has already become a mainstream technology in global planarization of wafer, but the mechanism of nonuniform material removal has not been revealed. In this paper, the calculation of particle movement tracks on wafer surface was conducted by the motion relationship between the wafer and the polishing pad on a large-sized single head CMP machine. Based on the distribution of particle tracks on wafer surface, the model for the within-wafer-nonuniformity (WIWNU) of material removal was put forward. By the calculation and analysis, the relationship between the motion variables of the CMP machine and the WIWNU of material removal on wafer surface had been derived. This model can be used not only for predicting the WIWNU, but also for providing theoretical guide to the design of CMP equipment, selecting the motion variables of CMP and further understanding the material removal mechanism in wafer CMP.
