Semiconductor field
Chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) of semiconductor substrates is a key process in semiconductor manufacturing, mainly used to improve the flatness and smoothness of the substrate surface to meet the requirements of subsequent processes. The following is detailed information about CMP polishing of semiconductor substrates:
(1) Silicon materials
- Silicon is the most fundamental and widely used material in the semiconductor industry. The CMP process can effectively remove scratches, unevenness, and other defects on the surface of silicon wafers, improving surface flatness, which is crucial for subsequent chip manufacturing.
(2) Gallium arsenide and indium phosphide materials
- Gallium arsenide (GaAs) and indium phosphide (InP) are two important compound semiconductor materials widely used in high-frequency, high-speed electronic devices and optoelectronic devices.
(3) Silicon carbide materials
- Including wide bandgap semiconductor materials such as silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN). These materials have wide applications in power electronics, microwave devices, etc., but their polishing processes are relatively complex and require specialized equipment and process parameters.
