PRINTED CHEMICAL MECHANICAL POLISHING PAD HAVING CONTROLLED POROSITY

A method of fabricating a polishing pad includes determining a desired distribution of voids to be introduced within a polymer matrix of a polishing layer of the polishing pad. Electronic control signals configured to be read by a 3D printer are generated which specify the locations where a polymer...

Zusammenfassung:	A method of fabricating a polishing pad includes determining a desired distribution of voids to be introduced within a polymer matrix of a polishing layer of the polishing pad. Electronic control signals configured to be read by a 3D printer are generated which specify the locations where a polymer matrix precursor is to be deposited, and specify the locations of the desired distribution of voids where no material is to be deposited. A plurality of layers of the polymer matrix corresponding to the plurality of the first locations is successfully deposited with the 3D printer. Each layer of the plurality of layers of polymer matrix is deposited by ejecting a polymer matrix precursor from a nozzle. The polymer matrix precursor is solidified to form a solidified polymer matrix having the desired distribution of voids.
