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.

Lower warp is required for the single crystal silicon wafers sawn by a fixed diamond wire saw with the thinness of a silicon wafer. The residual stress in the surface layer of the silicon wafer is the primary reason for warp, which is generated by the phase transitions, elastic-plastic deformation, and non-uniform distribution of thermal energy during wire sawing. In this paper, an experiment of multi-wire sawing single crystal silicon is carried out, and the Raman spectra technique is used to detect the phase transitions and residual stress in the surface layer of the silicon wafers. Three different wire speeds are used to study the effect of wire speed on phase transition and residual stress of the silicon wafers. The experimental results indicate that amorphous silicon is generated during resin bonded diamond wire sawing, of which the Raman peaks are at 178.9 cm−1 and 468.5 cm−1. The ratio of the amorphous silicon surface area and the surface area of a single crystal silicon, and the depth of amorphous silicon layer increases with the increasing of wire speed. This indicates that more amorphous silicon is generated. There is both compressive stress and tensile stress on the surface layer of the silicon wafer. The residual tensile stress is between 0 and 200 MPa, and the compressive stress is between 0 and 300 MPa for the experimental results of this paper. Moreover, the residual stress increases with the increase of wire speed, indicating more amorphous silicon generated as well.
