SUBSTRATE PRECESSION MECHANISM FOR CMP POLISHING HEAD

A substrate precession apparatus for a carrier head is provided. The apparatus enables substrate precession, which is the rotational movement of the substrate relative to the carrier head during polishing of the substrate. The carrier head and a retaining ring assembly may be de-coupled and move ind...

Zusammenfassung:A substrate precession apparatus for a carrier head is provided. The apparatus enables substrate precession, which is the rotational movement of the substrate relative to the carrier head during polishing of the substrate. The carrier head and a retaining ring assembly may be de-coupled and move independently of one another to promote substrate precession during a CMP process.
