Description

[0001] The present invention relates to an inner spherical surface of a retainer ring,

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention [0001] The present invention relates to an inner surface polishing apparatus for a retainer ring, and more particularly to an inner surface polishing apparatus for a retainer ring that processes a surface of an inner peripheral surface of a retainer ring having a cut- .

Generally, a semiconductor wafer is subjected to surface planarization by chemical mechanical polishing (CMP).

The chemical mechanical polishing apparatus is an apparatus for polishing or removing an oxide film or a metal thin film applied on a semiconductor wafer by using chemical action and physical action to planarize or remove the oxide film or the metal thin film.

The chemical mechanical polishing apparatus is connected to the motor and polishes the wafer surface of the semiconductor accommodated in the rotating polishing head while supplying a chemical abrasive to the polishing pad.

The retainer ring is mounted on a lower surface of the polishing head to form a receiving portion in which the semiconductor wafer is received, and serves to prevent the semiconductor wafer from being detached from the receiving portion during polishing.

The retainer ring is used by periodically replacing the wearer with a consumable item while the lower surface of the retainer ring contacts the polishing pad.

The retainer ring of the chemical mechanical polishing apparatus is abraded while abrading the abrasive pad which abrades the wafer during use, so that if foreign matter is contained in the abraded portion, the foreign matter damages the polishing pad.

Particularly, when a metallic foreign substance is contained in the interior of the retainer ring, the polishing pad is largely damaged, thereby causing damage to the wafer, as well as greatly reducing safety and causing an accident.

On the other hand, the retainer ring may be formed in a ring-like shape so that the inside thereof penetrates vertically, but the retainer ring may be configured to be closed in a spherical shape.

The ring-shaped retainer ring has only a circular side surface, while the spherical retainer ring has a shape in which a spherical surface having a certain thickness is partially cut.

However, since the surface treatment of the spherical retainer ring is performed by a manual operation of fixing the end of the retainer ring so that the inside of the retainer ring faces upward and then allowing the end of the abrasive tool to contact the inner spherical surface while rotating the retainer ring, There is a problem that the specific gravity is very large and the efficiency is low even in polishing uniformity.
