 Chemical Mechanical Planarization (CMP)

Semiconductor manufacturing process technology follows Moores Law and grows constantly with higher performance, higher speeds, finer line pitch, and more integration. To meet the demands for wafer surface planarization and DOC (Depth of Focus) of photo lithography, planarization techniques keep being updated. When deep submicron (under 0.35 micron) circuits are used, CMP (Chemical Mechanical Polishing) technique is utilized and satisfies the needs for total planarization.
Chemical Mechanical Polishing uses slurry and pad to work with mechanical polishing and polishes off the oxide and metal layers on the IC wafer to reach total planarization. It overcomes the limitations for layout design and increases the pattern density. Meanwhile, it also lowers the defect count and improves the yield rate of the manufacturing process.
For several years, Eternal has devoted great effort in developing semiconductor materials. At the same time, we have outstanding and professional staff and precision instruments. Currently our CMP slurry laboratory has a clean room equipped with precision instruments like polishing machines, post clean machines, film thickness measurement instruments, and SEM, amongst others. We cooperate with many noted Taiwan research institutes such as Industrial Technology Research Institute, Electronics Research & service Organization (ERSO), Union Chemical Laboratories (UCL), National Narrow Device Laboratory (NDL), Chung-shan Institute of Science & Technology, and many other academic institutes. Accompanied by resources from these institutes and our decades of experience and expertise accumulated from polymers and specialty chemicals, we have successfully developed various high performance CMP slurries for the oxide and metal layer. Importantly, the quality and performance of the most advanced Copper Process CMP slurry we developed with ERSO has reached the technical qualifications required by the Technology Roadmap from Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA). This slurry has drawn great attention from the industry and we are aggressively working on all possible alliances for further developments.
