Zusammenfassung:Exemplary carrier heads for a chemical mechanical polishing apparatus may include a carrier body. The carrier heads may include a substrate mounting surface coupled with the carrier body. The carrier heads may include an inner ring that is sized and shaped to circumferentially surround a peripheral edge of a substrate positioned against the substrate mounting surface. The inner ring may be characterized by a first end having a first surface that faces the carrier body and a second end having a second surface opposite the first surface. The second end of the inner ring may be radially displaceable. The carrier heads may include an outer ring having an inner surface that is disposed against an outer surface of the inner ring.
