Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A chemical mechanical polishing apparatus includes a platen to hold a polishing pad, a carrier laterally movable by an actuator across the polishing pad to hold a substrate against a polishing surface of the polishing pad during a polishing process, a thermal control system including a plurality of independently controllable heaters and coolers to independently control temperatures of a plurality of zones on the polishing pad, and a controller configured to cause the thermal control system to generate a first zone having a first temperature and a second zone having a different second temperature on the polishing pad.
