Lithium tantalite (LiTaO3) possesses a combination of unique electro-optical, acoustic, piezoelectric, pyroelectric and non-linear optical properties, making it a suitable material for applications in high frequency, broad width-band SAW and BAW components, filters in television receivers, etc. The surface quality of LiTaO3 wafers decides the performances of the devices. In this paper, the technique of chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) was used to polish LiTaO3 wafers. The influences of the polishing parameters on the CMP processes of LiTaO3 wafers were analyzed in detail based on the measurement of the material removal rate, surface roughness and topograph of the polished wafers in different polishing conditions.

Chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) had been considered as the most practical and effective method of achieving an ultra-smooth and non-damage surface in manufacturing SiC crystal substrate. CMP slurry was one of the key factors of CMP technology. In this paper, through investigating the changes of several core factors to evaluate the performance of CMP, such as the material removal rate (MRR), surface roughness Ra, 3D surface profiler, etc., the influence of various slurry and its content on the polishing efficiency and surface finish quality had been studied. The research results showed that different oxidant had different chemical action mechanism, also affecting the stability of CMP slurry and surface quality of specimen; adding suitable an oxidant to slurry could effectively improve the CMP performance.

Research Results

In chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) of ultra-thin stainless steel, the oxidant of polishing slurry determines the material removal rate (MRR). In this paper, the influences of oxidant in slurry on MRR and surface roughness have been studied in CMP of ultra-thin 304 stainless steel based on alumina (Al2O3) abrasive. The research results show that, in the same conditions, the MRR increases with the increase of the oxidant C and the oxidant B, the MRR decreases with the increase of the oxidant A and the MRR is max with the oxidant C. It indicated that the oxidant C has a large effect on MRR in CMP of the 304 stainless steel. The research results can provide the reference for studying the slurry in CMP of ultra-thin stainless steel.

The method of chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) using slurry which was ultrasonic subtle atomized was researched, and the system of Ultrasonic Subtle Atomization—Chemical Mechanical Polishing was established. The effects of polish parameters on polishing were also investigated. The results show that the experimental system can fully realize the expected function of polishing, the use of slurry is about one-tenth of the amount of traditional CMP, material removal rate can reach 113.734nm/min and the surface roughness is similar to the surface roughness in the traditional way.

Through experimental study on the role of the free abrasive in chemical mechanical polishing, in this paper, four different types of abrasive which were chosen were used for the research of material removal rate(MRR) and surface quality of SiC single crystal . Finally ,Diamond abrasive which is considered was the most suitable for chemical mechanical polishing(CMP) abrasive of SiC Crystal Substrate. With diamond Particle polish pad polishing, it is draw a comparison result on the influence of the free abrasive and consolidation abrasive for the material removal rate and surface quality of 6H-SiC. The results showed that: the MRR is 140nm / min, the material removal rate if fixed abrasive chemical mechanical polishing(FA-CMP) more than three times that of traditional CMP, fixed abrasive chemical mechanical polishing pad, are involved in a large proportion of micro abrasive cutting, can greatly improve the material removal efficiency. And results from the test procedure, the FA-CMP surface has scratches after more technical problems for the polishing pad, the surface damage is relatively free of abrasive chemical mechanical polishing is more serious.

2inch 6H-SiC (0001) wafers were sliced from the ingot grown by a conventional physical vapor transport (PVT) method using an abrasive multi-wire saw. While sliced SiC wafers lapped by a slurry with 1~9㎛ diamond particles had a mean height (Ra) value of 40nm, wafers after the final mechanical polishing using the slurry of 0.1㎛ diamond particles exhibited Ra of 4Å. In this study, we focused on investigation into the effect of the slurry type of chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) on the material removal rate of SiC materials and the change in surface roughness by adding abrasives and oxidizer to conventional KOH-based colloidal silica slurry. The nano-sized diamond slurry (average grain size of 25nm) added in KOH-based colloidal silica slurry resulted in a material removal rate (MRR) of 0.07mg/hr and the Ra of 1.811Å. The addition of oxidizer (NaOCl) in the nano-size diamond and KOH based colloidal silica slurry was proven to improve the CMP characteristics for SiC wafer, having a MRR of 0.3mg/hr and Ra of 1.087Å.

Abrasive Properties

In this study, we have characterized the effects of abrasive properties, primarily particle size, on the Chemical Mechanical Polishing (CMP) of oxide films. Sol-gel silica particles with very narrow size distributions were used for preparing the polishing slurries. The results indicate that as particle size increases, there is a transition in the mechanism of material removal from a surface area based mechanism to an indentation-based mechanism. In addition, the surface morphology of the polished samples was characterized, with the results showing that particles larger than 0.5 μm are detrimental to the quality of the SiO2 surface.
