3M™ Diamond Pad Conditioner C Series

(SPEECH) [MUSIC PLAYING] (DESCRIPTION) Text: 3M Science. Applied to Life. 3M CMP Pad Conditioner Coatings, Redefining metal contamination protection in CMP. Could your CMP process be suffering from metal contamination? (SPEECH) In today's advanced and mature nodes semiconductor manufacturing processes, metal contamination is becoming an increasingly common driver of high defect rates and low yields. (DESCRIPTION) Processes potentially sensitive to metal contamination: Advanced node, Mature node, Silicon and silicon carbide wafer manufacturing. Common metal contamination types: Nickel, Manganese, Iron. (SPEECH) Plus, slurries are getting harsher. Metal film CMP processes, like tungsten and copper, or substrates, like silicon carbide, call for more acidic slurries and faster slurry flow to get polishing done fast. (DESCRIPTION) Animation of the CMP process. (SPEECH) But the harsher the slurry, the higher the risk of leaching metal out of the pad conditioner and into the wafer. (DESCRIPTION) Metals float from the conditioner into the wafer. (SPEECH) Or even damaging the metal matrix enough for diamonds to fall off and scratch the wafer. (DESCRIPTION) A scratched wafer. (SPEECH) For over a decade, 3M Trizact brand pad conditioners have offered effective polishing on a ceramic substrate to help minimize metal leaching. (DESCRIPTION) Image of the substrate. (SPEECH) Now innovative CMP coatings bring powerful metal leaching protection to all 3M brand pad conditioners. 3M coatings can help reduce contamination from nickel, iron, manganese and other metals by up to 99%. (DESCRIPTION) A chart shows this. (SPEECH) These clear, ultra thin coatings can be applied to any 3M pad conditioner providing protection with equivalent polishing performance. (DESCRIPTION) A chart shows the removal rate with 3M coating, which is around 1000 to 1500. (SPEECH) For highly demanding applications, combine 3M Trizact brand pad conditioners, or 3M brand flexible pad conditioners, with a coating to protect the carrier as well, helping ensure peak performance for thousands of wafers polished. (DESCRIPTION) A polisher moves back and forth across a wafer. (SPEECH) Learn more about 3M CMP coatings at 3M.com/CMP.
