Pad Scratching in Chemical-Mechanical Polishing: The Effects of Mechanical and Tribological Properties

In chemical-mechanical polishing (CMP), even the soft pad asperities may, under certain conditions, generate scratches on the relatively hard surfaces being polished. In the present study, contact mechanics models of pad-induced scratching are formulated, and the effects of the hardness of the surfa...
