Description

研磨方法及研磨裝置Grinding method and grinding device

本發明係關於一種研磨晶圓等基板之周緣部的研磨方法及研磨裝置。The present invention relates to a polishing method and a polishing device for polishing the peripheral edge of a substrate such as a wafer.

從提高製造半導體元件時之合格率的觀點,近年來頗重視基板表面狀態之管理。半導體元件之製造工序係將各種材料膜形成於矽晶圓上。因而,會在基板之周緣部形成不需要的膜及表面粗糙。近年來通常採用僅以手臂保持基板之周緣部來搬送基板的方法。在此種背景下,殘留於周緣部之不需要的膜在經過各種工序期間會剝離,並附著於基板上所形成的元件,而使合格率降低。因此,為了除去形成於基板周緣部之不需要的膜,係使用研磨裝置進行基板周緣部之研磨。From the viewpoint of improving the yield rate when manufacturing semiconductor devices, much attention has been paid to the management of substrate surface conditions in recent years. The manufacturing process of semiconductor devices is to form films of various materials on silicon wafers. Therefore, unnecessary films and surface roughness are formed on the peripheral portion of the substrate. In recent years, a method of transporting the substrate by holding only the peripheral edge portion of the substrate is generally adopted. Against this background, unnecessary films remaining on the peripheral portion may be peeled off during various processes and adhere to elements formed on the substrate, thereby reducing the yield. Therefore, in order to remove unnecessary films formed on the peripheral portion of the substrate, a polishing device is used to polish the peripheral portion of the substrate.

此種研磨裝置習知為使用研磨帶研磨基板周緣部之裝置。藉由一邊在指定方向輸送研磨帶,一邊以研磨頭將研磨帶按壓於旋轉之基板的周緣部來研磨基板之周緣部。過去之研磨裝置習知為具備單一研磨頭者,或是如專利文獻1所示,為了縮短整個研磨處理時間而具備複數個研磨頭者。 [先前技術文獻] [專利文獻] Such a polishing device is conventionally known as a device that uses a polishing tape to polish the peripheral edge of a substrate. The peripheral edge portion of the substrate is polished by pressing the polishing tape against the peripheral edge portion of the rotating substrate with a polishing head while conveying the polishing tape in a specified direction. Conventional polishing devices are conventionally equipped with a single polishing head, or as shown in Patent Document 1, with a plurality of polishing heads in order to shorten the entire polishing process time.

(發明所欲解決之問題)(Invent the problem you want to solve)

圖24係顯示以2個研磨頭110A, 110B研磨基板W之周緣部的情形圖。藉由在以研磨頭110A將研磨帶102A按壓於基板W之周緣部的同時,以研磨頭110B將研磨帶102B按壓於基板之周緣部來研磨基板W的周緣部。以2個研磨頭研磨基板W時,要比僅以1個研磨頭研磨基板W可縮短整個研磨處理時間。FIG. 24 is a diagram showing the state of polishing the peripheral portion of the substrate W using two polishing heads 110A and 110B. The peripheral edge portion of the substrate W is polished by pressing the polishing tape 102A against the peripheral edge portion of the substrate W using the polishing head 110A and simultaneously pressing the polishing tape 102B against the peripheral edge portion of the substrate W using the polishing head 110B. When the substrate W is polished with two polishing heads, the entire polishing processing time can be shortened compared with polishing the substrate W with only one polishing head.

但是,如圖24所示,將2個研磨頭110A, 110B引起之按壓力F賦予基板W的周緣部時,與以1個研磨頭研磨時比較,會在基板W之周緣部施加過大的負荷,而造成基板W翹曲。因為此種基板W之變形,導致研磨頭110A, 110B引起之按壓力無法均勻地賦予基板W的周緣部,結果無法均勻地研磨基板W的周緣部。However, as shown in FIG. 24 , when the pressing force F caused by two polishing heads 110A and 110B is applied to the peripheral portion of the substrate W, an excessive load will be applied to the peripheral portion of the substrate W compared to when polishing with one polishing head. , causing the substrate W to warp. Due to such deformation of the substrate W, the pressing force caused by the polishing heads 110A and 110B cannot be uniformly applied to the peripheral portion of the substrate W. As a result, the peripheral portion of the substrate W cannot be uniformly polished.

因此,本發明提供一種藉由使用複數個研磨頭研磨基板之周緣部,可縮短整個研磨處理時間,並抑制基板翹曲之研磨方法及研磨裝置。 (解決問題之手段) Therefore, the present invention provides a polishing method and a polishing device that can shorten the entire polishing process time and suppress warpage of the substrate by using a plurality of polishing heads to polish the peripheral portion of the substrate.

本實施形態之第一研磨區域與第二研磨區域位於相反側。亦即,第一研磨區域兩端之第一研磨點P1、第二研磨點P2,與第二研磨區域兩端之第三研磨點P3、第四研磨點P4位於相反側。第一研磨點P1與基板W之中心O1(亦即指定之旋轉軸心Cr)的距離、與第四研磨點P4與基板W之中心O1(亦即,指定之旋轉軸心Cr)的距離相等。第二研磨點P2與基板W之中心O1(亦即,指定之旋轉軸心Cr)的距離、與第三研磨點P3與基板W之中心O1(亦即,指定之旋轉軸心Cr)的距離相等。亦即,第一研磨區域與第二研磨區域在基板W之半徑方向的長度相等。In this embodiment, the first polishing area and the second polishing area are located on opposite sides. That is, the first grinding point P1 and the second grinding point P2 at both ends of the first grinding area are located on the opposite side to the third grinding point P3 and fourth grinding point P4 at both ends of the second grinding area. The distance between the first grinding point P1 and the center O1 of the substrate W (that is, the designated rotation axis Cr) is equal to the distance between the fourth grinding point P4 and the center O1 of the substrate W (that is, the designated rotation axis Cr). . The distance between the second grinding point P2 and the center O1 of the substrate W (that is, the designated rotation axis Cr), and the distance between the third grinding point P3 and the center O1 of the substrate W (that is, the designated rotation axis Cr) equal. That is, the lengths of the first polishing area and the second polishing area in the radial direction of the substrate W are equal.

如圖6A所示,第一研磨頭10A將第一研磨帶2A按壓於第一研磨點P1開始研磨第一研磨區域。其次,在以第一研磨頭10A將第一研磨帶2A按壓於基板W的狀態下,藉由第一研磨頭平移移動機構40A使第一研磨頭10A在第一方向D1移動至第二研磨點P2。第一方向D1在基板W之半徑方向係從基板W之中心O1離開的方向,亦即,係從指定之旋轉軸心Cr離開的方向。As shown in FIG. 6A , the first polishing head 10A presses the first polishing belt 2A to the first polishing point P1 to start polishing the first polishing area. Next, with the first polishing head 10A pressing the first polishing tape 2A against the substrate W, the first polishing head 10A is moved to the second polishing point in the first direction D1 by the first polishing head translational movement mechanism 40A. P2. The first direction D1 is a direction away from the center O1 of the substrate W in the radial direction of the substrate W, that is, it is a direction away from the designated rotation axis Cr.

再者,在以第一研磨頭10A將第一研磨帶2A按壓於基板W的狀態下,藉由第一研磨頭平移移動機構40A使第一研磨頭10A在第二方向D2移動至第一研磨點P1。第二方向D2在基板W之半徑方向係接近基板W之中心O1的方向,亦即,係接近指定之旋轉軸心Cr的方向。第一方向D1與第二方向D2係相反方向。藉此,第一研磨頭10A往返1次研磨第一研磨區域。一種實施形態亦可進一步使第一研磨頭10A在第一方向D1移動,反覆進行圖6A所示之研磨動作,而往返複數次研磨第一研磨區域。或是,亦可不使第一研磨頭10A在第二方向D2移動,而單程部分研磨第一研磨區域。Furthermore, in a state where the first polishing head 10A presses the first polishing tape 2A against the substrate W, the first polishing head 10A is moved to the first polishing position in the second direction D2 by the first polishing head translational movement mechanism 40A. Click P1. The second direction D2 is a direction close to the center O1 of the substrate W in the radial direction of the substrate W, that is, a direction close to the designated rotation axis Cr. The first direction D1 and the second direction D2 are opposite directions. Thereby, the first polishing head 10A polishes the first polishing area in one round trip. In one embodiment, the first polishing head 10A can be further moved in the first direction D1, and the polishing action shown in FIG. 6A can be repeatedly performed, and the first polishing area can be polished back and forth several times. Alternatively, the first polishing head 10A may not be moved in the second direction D2 and the first polishing area may be partially polished in a single pass.

如圖6B所示,第二研磨頭10B將第二研磨帶2B按壓於第三研磨點P3而開始研磨第二研磨區域。其次,在以第二研磨頭10B將第二研磨帶2B按壓於基板W的狀態下,藉由第二研磨頭平移移動機構40B使第二研磨頭10B在第二方向D2移動至第四研磨點P4。第二方向D2與參照圖6A所說明之第二方向D2相同。As shown in FIG. 6B , the second polishing head 10B presses the second polishing belt 2B against the third polishing point P3 to start polishing the second polishing area. Next, with the second polishing head 10B pressing the second polishing tape 2B against the substrate W, the second polishing head 10B is moved to the fourth polishing point in the second direction D2 by the second polishing head translational movement mechanism 40B. P4. The second direction D2 is the same as the second direction D2 described with reference to FIG. 6A .

再者,在以第二研磨頭10B將第二研磨帶2B按壓於基板W的狀態下,藉由第二研磨頭平移移動機構40B使第二研磨頭10B在第一方向D1移動至第三研磨點P3。第一方向D1係與參照圖6A所說明之第一方向D1相同。藉此,第二研磨頭10B往返1次研磨第二研磨區域。一種實施形態亦可進一步使第二研磨頭10B在第二方向D2移動,反覆進行圖6B所示之研磨動作,來往返複數次研磨第二研磨區域。或是亦可不使第二研磨頭10B在第一方向D1移動,而單程部分研磨第二研磨區域。Furthermore, in a state where the second polishing head 10B presses the second polishing tape 2B against the substrate W, the second polishing head translation movement mechanism 40B moves the second polishing head 10B in the first direction D1 to the third polishing position. Click P3. The first direction D1 is the same as the first direction D1 explained with reference to FIG. 6A . Thereby, the second polishing head 10B polishes the second polishing area in one round trip. In one embodiment, the second polishing head 10B can be further moved in the second direction D2, and the polishing action shown in FIG. 6B can be repeatedly performed, and the second polishing area can be polished back and forth several times. Alternatively, the second polishing head 10B may not be moved in the first direction D1 and the second polishing area may be partially polished in a single pass.

第一研磨頭10A與第二研磨頭10B同時研磨頂邊緣部E1之第一研磨區域與底邊緣部E2之第二研磨區域。亦可第一研磨頭10A將第一研磨帶2A按壓於第一研磨點P1而開始研磨第一研磨區域的時機、與第二研磨頭10B將第二研磨帶2B按壓於第三研磨點P3而開始研磨第二研磨區域的時機同時。亦可第一研磨頭10A與第二研磨頭10B之移動速度相等,而第一研磨頭10A到達第二研磨點P2之時機、與第二研磨頭10B到達第四研磨點P4之時機同時。再者,亦可第一研磨頭10A與第二研磨頭10B折回,而第一研磨頭10A返回第一研磨點P1之時機、與第二研磨頭10B返回第三研磨點P3之時機同時。再者,研磨結束時,亦可使第一研磨頭10A之按壓構件12從基板W離開的時機、與使第二研磨頭10B之按壓構件12從基板W離開的時機同時。The first grinding head 10A and the second grinding head 10B simultaneously grind the first grinding area of the top edge part E1 and the second grinding area of the bottom edge part E2. It is also possible that the first polishing head 10A presses the first polishing belt 2A to the first polishing point P1 to start polishing the first polishing area at the same time as the second polishing head 10B presses the second polishing belt 2B to the third polishing point P3. The timing to start grinding the second grinding area is the same. Alternatively, the moving speeds of the first grinding head 10A and the second grinding head 10B may be equal, and the timing when the first grinding head 10A reaches the second grinding point P2 and the timing when the second grinding head 10B reaches the fourth grinding point P4 are simultaneous. Furthermore, the first grinding head 10A and the second grinding head 10B can also be folded back, and the timing of the first grinding head 10A returning to the first grinding point P1 is the same as the timing of the second grinding head 10B returning to the third grinding point P3. Furthermore, when polishing is completed, the timing at which the pressing member 12 of the first polishing head 10A is separated from the substrate W may be synchronized with the timing at which the pressing member 12 of the second polishing head 10B is separated from the substrate W.

採用本實施形態時,因為第一研磨頭10A與第二研磨頭10B同時研磨頂邊緣部E1之第一研磨區域與底邊緣部E2之第二研磨區域,所以與以1個研磨頭研磨頂邊緣部E1與底邊緣部E2時比較,可縮短整體之研磨處理時間。When this embodiment is adopted, since the first polishing head 10A and the second polishing head 10B polish the first polishing area of the top edge E1 and the second polishing area of the bottom edge E2 at the same time, the top edge is polished with one polishing head. Compared with the bottom edge portion E1 and the bottom edge portion E2, the overall grinding processing time can be shortened.

此外,第一研磨區域與第二研磨區域位於相反側,因為第一研磨頭10A與第二研磨頭10B一邊在作為相反方向之第一方向D1及第二方向D2移動,一邊研磨基板W,所以第一研磨頭10A引起之按壓力與第二研磨頭10B引起之按壓力係賦予相反方向。因此,如參照圖24之說明,第一研磨頭10A與第二研磨頭10B引起之按壓力不致過大賦予基板W的周緣部,可抑制基板W翹曲。In addition, the first polishing area and the second polishing area are located on opposite sides, because the first polishing head 10A and the second polishing head 10B polish the substrate W while moving in the first direction D1 and the second direction D2 which are opposite directions, so The pressing force caused by the first polishing head 10A and the pressing force caused by the second polishing head 10B are given in opposite directions. Therefore, as explained with reference to FIG. 24 , the pressing force caused by the first polishing head 10A and the second polishing head 10B is not excessively applied to the peripheral portion of the substrate W, and warpage of the substrate W can be suppressed.

再者,採用本實施形態時,因為第一研磨頭10A與第二研磨頭10B係一邊在作為相反方向之第一方向D1及第二方向D2移動,一邊研磨基板W,所以可防止在使第一研磨頭10A與第二研磨頭10B從基板W之頂邊緣部側與底邊緣部側的兩側按壓而移動時,基板W與第一研磨頭10A及第二研磨頭10B一起移動,對基板保持部5基板位置偏移。Furthermore, in this embodiment, since the first polishing head 10A and the second polishing head 10B polish the substrate W while moving in the first direction D1 and the second direction D2 which are opposite directions, it is possible to prevent the first polishing head 10A and the second polishing head 10B from polishing the substrate W. When the first polishing head 10A and the second polishing head 10B are pressed and moved from both sides of the top edge side and the bottom edge side of the substrate W, the substrate W moves together with the first polishing head 10A and the second polishing head 10B to polish the substrate. The position of the substrate of the holding part 5 is shifted.

In one embodiment, the second grinding head 10B can be further tilted in the second direction D2 to repeatedly perform the grinding action shown in FIG. 10B to grind the second grinding area back and forth several times. Alternatively, the second polishing head 10B may not be tilted in the first direction D1, but the second polishing area may be partially polished in a single pass.

第一研磨頭10A與第二研磨頭10B同時研磨斜角部B之第一研磨區域與第二研磨區域。亦可第一研磨頭10A將第一研磨帶2A按壓於第一研磨點P1而開始研磨第一研磨區域的時機、與第二研磨頭10B將第二研磨帶2B按壓於第三研磨點P3而開始研磨第二研磨區域的時機同時。亦可第一研磨頭10A與第二研磨頭10B之傾斜移動速度相等,而第一研磨頭10A到達第二研磨點P2之時機、與第二研磨頭10B到達第四研磨點P4之時機同時。再者,亦可第一研磨頭10A與第二研磨頭10B折回,而第一研磨頭10A返回第一研磨點P1的時機、與第二研磨頭10B返回第三研磨點P3之時機同時。再者,研磨結束時,亦可使第一研磨頭10A之按壓構件12從基板W離開的時機、與使第二研磨頭10B之按壓構件12從基板W離開的時機同時。The first grinding head 10A and the second grinding head 10B grind the first grinding area and the second grinding area of the bevel portion B simultaneously. It is also possible that the first polishing head 10A presses the first polishing belt 2A to the first polishing point P1 to start polishing the first polishing area at the same time as the second polishing head 10B presses the second polishing belt 2B to the third polishing point P3. The timing to start grinding the second grinding area is the same. Alternatively, the tilting speeds of the first grinding head 10A and the second grinding head 10B may be equal, and the timing when the first grinding head 10A reaches the second grinding point P2 and the timing when the second grinding head 10B reaches the fourth grinding point P4 are simultaneous. Furthermore, the first grinding head 10A and the second grinding head 10B can also be folded back, and the timing of the first grinding head 10A returning to the first grinding point P1 is the same as the timing of the second grinding head 10B returning to the third grinding point P3. Furthermore, when polishing is completed, the timing of separating the pressing member 12 of the first polishing head 10A from the substrate W may be the same as the timing of separating the pressing member 12 of the second polishing head 10B from the substrate W.

採用本實施形態時,因為以第一研磨頭10A與第二研磨頭10B同時研磨斜角部B,所以與以1個研磨頭研磨斜角部B時比較,可縮短整體之研磨處理時間。In this embodiment, since the bevel portion B is ground simultaneously with the first polishing head 10A and the second polishing head 10B, the overall polishing processing time can be shortened compared with the case where one polishing head is used to polish the bevel portion B.

此外,藉由第一研磨頭10A開始研磨之第一研磨點P1與藉由第二研磨頭10B開始研磨之第三研磨點P3在斜角部B中位於相反側,因為第一研磨頭10A與第二研磨頭10B一邊在作為相反方向之第一方向D1及第二方向D2傾斜移動,一邊研磨基板W,所以第一研磨頭10A引起之按壓力與第二研磨頭10B引起之按壓力對斜角部B賦予相反方向。因此,如參照圖24之說明,第一研磨頭10A與第二研磨頭10B引起之按壓力不致過大賦予基板W的周緣部,可抑制基板W翹曲。In addition, the first grinding point P1 where grinding is started by the first grinding head 10A and the third grinding point P3 where grinding is started by the second grinding head 10B are located on opposite sides in the bevel part B because the first grinding head 10A and The second polishing head 10B polishes the substrate W while tilting in the first direction D1 and the second direction D2 which are opposite directions. Therefore, the pressing force caused by the first polishing head 10A and the pressing force caused by the second polishing head 10B are oblique. Corner B gives the opposite direction. Therefore, as explained with reference to FIG. 24 , the pressing force caused by the first polishing head 10A and the second polishing head 10B is not excessively applied to the peripheral portion of the substrate W, and warpage of the substrate W can be suppressed.

圖15A至圖15D係顯示第一研磨頭10A~第四研磨頭10D之研磨動作的一種實施形態圖。本實施形態係一邊以第一研磨頭10A及第四研磨頭10D研磨基板W之頂邊緣部E1,一邊以第二研磨頭10B及第三研磨頭10C研磨基板W之底邊緣部E2。15A to 15D are diagrams showing an embodiment of the grinding operation of the first to fourth grinding heads 10A to 10D. In this embodiment, the top edge E1 of the substrate W is polished with the first polishing head 10A and the fourth polishing head 10D, while the bottom edge E2 of the substrate W is polished with the second polishing head 10B and the third polishing head 10C.

由於圖15A及圖15B所示之第一研磨頭10A及第二研磨頭10B的研磨動作,與參照圖6A及圖6B所說明之第一研磨頭10A及第二研磨頭10B的研磨動作相同,因此省略其重複之說明。Since the grinding operations of the first grinding head 10A and the second grinding head 10B shown in FIGS. 15A and 15B are the same as the grinding operations of the first grinding head 10A and the second grinding head 10B described with reference to FIGS. 6A and 6B, Therefore, repeated explanations are omitted.

藉由第三研磨頭10C研磨之第三研磨區域係基板W之底邊緣部E2內的第五研磨點P5與第六研磨點P6之間的區域。第五研磨點P5在比第六研磨點P6遠離基板W之中心O1(亦即,指定之旋轉軸心Cr)的位置。藉由第四研磨頭10D研磨之第四研磨區域係基板W之頂邊緣部E1內的第七研磨點P7與第八研磨點P8之間的區域。第七研磨點P7在比第八研磨點P8接近基板W之中心O1(亦即,指定之旋轉軸心Cr)的位置。The third polishing area polished by the third polishing head 10C is the area between the fifth polishing point P5 and the sixth polishing point P6 in the bottom edge E2 of the substrate W. The fifth polishing point P5 is located farther from the center O1 of the substrate W (that is, the designated rotation axis Cr) than the sixth polishing point P6. The fourth polishing area polished by the fourth polishing head 10D is the area between the seventh polishing point P7 and the eighth polishing point P8 in the top edge E1 of the substrate W. The seventh polishing point P7 is located closer to the center O1 of the substrate W (that is, the designated rotation axis Cr) than the eighth polishing point P8.

本實施形態藉由第三研磨頭10C研磨之第三研磨區域、與藉由第四研磨頭10D研磨之第四研磨區域位於相反側。亦即,第三研磨區域兩端之第五研磨點P5、第六研磨點P6;與第四研磨區域兩端之第七研磨點P7、第八研磨點P8位於相反側。第五研磨點P5從基板W之中心O1(亦即,指定之旋轉軸心Cr)的距離與第八研磨點P8從基板W之中心O1(亦即,指定之旋轉軸心Cr)的距離相等。第六研磨點P6從基板W之中心O1(亦即,指定之旋轉軸心Cr)的距離、與第七研磨點P7從基板W之中心O1(亦即,指定之旋轉軸心Cr)的距離相等。亦即,第三研磨區域與第四研磨區域在基板W之半徑方向的長度相等。In this embodiment, the third polishing area polished by the third polishing head 10C and the fourth polishing area polished by the fourth polishing head 10D are located on the opposite side. That is, the fifth grinding point P5 and the sixth grinding point P6 at both ends of the third grinding area are on the opposite side to the seventh grinding point P7 and eighth grinding point P8 at both ends of the fourth grinding area. The distance of the fifth grinding point P5 from the center O1 of the substrate W (that is, the designated rotation axis Cr) is equal to the distance of the eighth grinding point P8 from the center O1 of the substrate W (that is, the designated rotation axis Cr). . The distance of the sixth polishing point P6 from the center O1 of the substrate W (that is, the designated rotation axis Cr), and the distance of the seventh polishing point P7 from the center O1 of the substrate W (that is, the designated rotation axis Cr) equal. That is, the lengths of the third polishing area and the fourth polishing area in the radial direction of the substrate W are equal.

如圖15C所示,第三研磨頭10C將第三研磨帶2C按壓於第五研磨點P5而開始研磨第三研磨區域。其次,在以第三研磨頭10C將第三研磨帶2C按壓於基板W的狀態下,藉由第三研磨頭平移移動機構使第三研磨頭10C在第三方向D3移動至第六研磨點P6。第三方向D3在基板W之半徑方向係接近基板W之中心O1的方向,亦即係指定之旋轉軸心Cr的方向。As shown in FIG. 15C , the third polishing head 10C presses the third polishing belt 2C against the fifth polishing point P5 to start polishing the third polishing area. Next, with the third polishing head 10C pressing the third polishing tape 2C against the substrate W, the third polishing head translational movement mechanism moves the third polishing head 10C in the third direction D3 to the sixth polishing point P6 . The third direction D3 is a direction close to the center O1 of the substrate W in the radial direction of the substrate W, that is, the direction of the designated rotation axis Cr.

再者,在以第三研磨頭10C將第三研磨帶2C按壓於基板W的狀態下,藉由第三研磨頭平移移動機構使第三研磨頭10C在第四方向D4移動至第五研磨點P5。第四方向D4係在基板W之半徑方向中,從基板W之中心O1離開的方向。亦即,係從指定之旋轉軸心Cr離開的方向。第三方向D3與第四方向D4係相反方向。藉此,第三研磨頭10C往返1次研磨第三研磨區域。一種實施形態亦可進一步使第三研磨頭10C在第三方向D3移動,反覆進行圖15C所示之研磨動作,而複數次往返研磨第三研磨區域。或是,亦可不使第三研磨頭10C在第四方向D4移動,而單程部分研磨第三研磨區域。Furthermore, in a state where the third polishing head 10C presses the third polishing tape 2C against the substrate W, the third polishing head translation movement mechanism moves the third polishing head 10C to the fifth polishing point in the fourth direction D4. P5. The fourth direction D4 is a direction away from the center O1 of the substrate W in the radial direction of the substrate W. That is, it is the direction away from the designated rotation axis Cr. The third direction D3 and the fourth direction D4 are opposite directions. Thereby, the third polishing head 10C polishes the third polishing area in one round trip. In one embodiment, the third grinding head 10C can be further moved in the third direction D3 to repeatedly perform the grinding action shown in FIG. 15C to grind the third grinding area back and forth a plurality of times. Alternatively, the third polishing area may be partially polished in a single pass without moving the third polishing head 10C in the fourth direction D4.

如圖15D所示,第四研磨頭10D將第四研磨帶2D按壓於第七研磨點P7開始研磨第四研磨區域。其次,在以第四研磨頭10D將第四研磨帶2D按壓於基板W的狀態下,藉由第四研磨頭平移移動機構使第四研磨頭10D在第四方向D4移動至第八研磨點P8。第四方向D4與參照圖15C所說明之第四方向D4相同。As shown in FIG. 15D , the fourth polishing head 10D presses the fourth polishing belt 2D to the seventh polishing point P7 to start polishing the fourth polishing area. Next, with the fourth polishing head 10D pressing the fourth polishing tape 2D against the substrate W, the fourth polishing head translation movement mechanism moves the fourth polishing head 10D in the fourth direction D4 to the eighth polishing point P8 . The fourth direction D4 is the same as the fourth direction D4 described with reference to FIG. 15C .

再者,在以第四研磨頭10D將第四研磨帶2D按壓於基板W的狀態下,藉由第四研磨頭平移移動機構使第四研磨頭10D在第三方向D3移動至第七研磨點P7。第三方向D3與參照圖15C所說明之第三方向D3相同。藉此,第四研磨頭10D往返1次研磨第四研磨區域。一種實施形態亦可進一步使第四研磨頭10D在第四方向D4移動,反覆進行圖15D所示之研磨動作,而往返複數次研磨第四研磨區域。或是,亦可不使第四研磨頭10D在第三方向D3移動,而單程部分研磨第四研磨區域。Furthermore, in a state where the fourth polishing belt 2D is pressed against the substrate W by the fourth polishing head 10D, the fourth polishing head 10D is moved to the seventh polishing point in the third direction D3 by the fourth polishing head translation movement mechanism. P7. The third direction D3 is the same as the third direction D3 described with reference to FIG. 15C . Thereby, the fourth polishing head 10D polishes the fourth polishing area in one round trip. In one embodiment, the fourth polishing head 10D can be further moved in the fourth direction D4 to repeatedly perform the polishing action shown in FIG. 15D to polish the fourth polishing area back and forth several times. Alternatively, it is also possible to partially grind the fourth grinding area in a single pass without moving the fourth grinding head 10D in the third direction D3.

藉由第一研磨頭10A研磨之第一研磨區域、與藉由第四研磨頭10D研磨之第四研磨區域實質地一致,藉由第二研磨頭10B研磨之第二研磨區域、與藉由第三研磨頭10C研磨之第三研磨區域實質地一致。此外,第一方向D1與第四方向D4實質地一致,第二方向D2與第三方向D3實質地一致。The first polishing area polished by the first polishing head 10A is substantially consistent with the fourth polishing area polished by the fourth polishing head 10D, and the second polishing area polished by the second polishing head 10B is substantially the same as the fourth polishing area polished by the fourth polishing head 10D. The third grinding areas of the three grinding heads 10C are substantially the same. In addition, the first direction D1 and the fourth direction D4 are substantially consistent, and the second direction D2 and the third direction D3 are substantially consistent.

第一研磨頭10A~第四研磨頭10D同時研磨頂邊緣部E1之第一研磨區域、第四研磨區域;與底邊緣部E2之第二研磨區域、第三研磨區域。第一研磨頭10A將第一研磨帶2A按壓於第一研磨點P1開始研磨第一研磨區域之時機;與第二研磨頭10B將第二研磨帶2B按壓於第三研磨點P3開始研磨第二研磨區域之時機;第三研磨頭10C將第三研磨帶2C按壓於第五研磨點P5開始研磨第三研磨區域之時機;與第四研磨頭10D將第四研磨帶2D按壓於第七研磨點P7開始研磨第四研磨區域的時機亦可同時。The first grinding head 10A to the fourth grinding head 10D simultaneously grind the first grinding area and the fourth grinding area of the top edge E1 and the second grinding area and the third grinding area of the bottom edge E2. The first grinding head 10A presses the first grinding belt 2A to the first grinding point P1 to start grinding the first grinding area; and the second grinding head 10B presses the second grinding belt 2B to the third grinding point P3 to start grinding the second grinding area. The timing of the grinding area; the third grinding head 10C presses the third grinding belt 2C to the fifth grinding point P5 and starts grinding the third grinding area; and the fourth grinding head 10D presses the fourth grinding belt 2D to the seventh grinding point. The timing of P7 starting to grind the fourth grinding area can also be at the same time.

第一研磨頭10A、第二研磨頭10B、第三研磨頭10C、及第四研磨頭10D之移動速度相等,第一研磨頭10A到達第二研磨點P2之時機、第二研磨頭10B到達第四研磨點P4之時機、第三研磨頭10C到達第六研磨點P6之時機、與第四研磨頭10D到達第八研磨點P8之時機亦可同時。再者,第一研磨頭10A、第二研磨頭10B、第三研磨頭10C、及第四研磨頭10D折回,而第一研磨頭10A返回第一研磨點P1之時機、第二研磨頭10B返回第三研磨點P3之時機、第三研磨頭10C返回第五研磨點P5之時機、與第四研磨頭10D返回第七研磨點P7之時機亦可同時。再者,研磨結束時,使第一研磨頭10A之按壓構件12從基板W離開的時機、使第二研磨頭10B之按壓構件12從基板W離開的時機、使第三研磨頭10C之按壓構件12從基板W離開的時機、與使第四研磨頭10D之按壓構件12從基板W離開的時機亦可同時。The moving speeds of the first grinding head 10A, the second grinding head 10B, the third grinding head 10C, and the fourth grinding head 10D are equal. When the first grinding head 10A reaches the second grinding point P2, the second grinding head 10B reaches the second grinding point P2. The timing of the fourth grinding point P4, the timing of the third grinding head 10C reaching the sixth grinding point P6, and the timing of the fourth grinding head 10D reaching the eighth grinding point P8 can also be simultaneous. Furthermore, the first grinding head 10A, the second grinding head 10B, the third grinding head 10C, and the fourth grinding head 10D are turned back, and when the first grinding head 10A returns to the first grinding point P1, the second grinding head 10B returns. The timing of the third grinding point P3, the timing of the third grinding head 10C returning to the fifth grinding point P5, and the timing of the fourth grinding head 10D returning to the seventh grinding point P7 can also be simultaneous. Furthermore, when polishing is completed, the timing of causing the pressing member 12 of the first polishing head 10A to separate from the substrate W, the timing of causing the pressing member 12 of the second polishing head 10B to separate from the substrate W, and the timing of causing the pressing member 12 of the third polishing head 10C to separate. The timing of separating the pressing member 12 of the fourth polishing head 10D from the substrate W may be the same as the timing of separating the pressing member 12 of the fourth polishing head 10D from the substrate W.

採用本實施形態時,因為係以第一研磨頭10A與第四研磨頭10D同時研磨頂邊緣部E1,並以第二研磨頭10B與第三研磨頭10C同時研磨底邊緣部E2,所以,與參照圖6A至圖9B所說明之以第一研磨頭10A與第二研磨頭10B之2個研磨頭研磨頂邊緣部E1與底邊緣部E2時比較,可進一步縮短整體研磨處理時間。When this embodiment is adopted, the top edge portion E1 is polished simultaneously with the first polishing head 10A and the fourth polishing head 10D, and the bottom edge portion E2 is polished simultaneously with the second polishing head 10B and the third polishing head 10C. Therefore, Compared with the case where the top edge E1 and the bottom edge E2 are polished with two polishing heads of the first polishing head 10A and the second polishing head 10B as described with reference to FIGS. 6A to 9B , the overall polishing processing time can be further shortened.

此外,因為第三研磨區域與第四研磨區域位於相反側,第三研磨頭10C與第四研磨頭10D係一邊在作為相反方向之第三方向D3及第四方向D4移動,一邊研磨基板W,所以第三研磨頭10C引起之按壓力與第四研磨頭10D引起之按壓力係賦予相反方向。因此,與第一研磨頭10A與第二研磨頭10B引起之按壓力同樣地,第三研磨頭10C與第四研磨頭10D引起之按壓力不致過大賦予基板W的周緣部,可抑制基板W翹曲。In addition, because the third polishing area and the fourth polishing area are located on opposite sides, the third polishing head 10C and the fourth polishing head 10D polish the substrate W while moving in the third direction D3 and the fourth direction D4, which are opposite directions. Therefore, the pressing force caused by the third polishing head 10C and the pressing force caused by the fourth polishing head 10D are given in opposite directions. Therefore, like the pressing force exerted by the first polishing head 10A and the second polishing head 10B, the pressing force exerted by the third polishing head 10C and the fourth polishing head 10D is not excessively applied to the peripheral portion of the substrate W, and warpage of the substrate W can be suppressed. song.

再者,採用本實施形態時,與第一研磨頭10A與第二研磨頭10B同樣地,因為第三研磨頭10C與第四研磨頭10D係一邊在作為相反方向之第三方向D3及第四方向D4移動,一邊研磨基板W,所以可防止在使第三研磨頭10C與第四研磨頭10D從基板W之頂邊緣部側與底邊緣部側的兩側按壓而移動時,基板W係與第三研磨頭10C及第四研磨頭10D一起移動,對基板保持部5基板位置偏移。Furthermore, when this embodiment is adopted, like the first polishing head 10A and the second polishing head 10B, the third polishing head 10C and the fourth polishing head 10D are in the third direction D3 and the fourth direction D3 which are opposite directions. The substrate W is polished while moving in the direction D4. Therefore, when the third polishing head 10C and the fourth polishing head 10D are pressed and moved from both sides of the top edge side and the bottom edge side of the substrate W, the substrate W is prevented from being in contact with the substrate W. The third polishing head 10C and the fourth polishing head 10D move together to shift the substrate position of the substrate holding part 5 .

以第一研磨頭10A~第四研磨頭10D之4個研磨頭同時研磨基板W之頂邊緣部E1及底邊緣部E2時,鄰接之第一研磨頭10A與第二研磨頭10B的研磨動作,可適用參照圖6A至圖9B所說明之第一研磨頭10A與第二研磨頭10B的4個類型之研磨動作。此外,鄰接之第三研磨頭10C與第四研磨頭10D之研磨動作可適用參照圖6A至圖9B所說明之第一研磨頭10A與第二研磨頭10B的4個類型之研磨動作。When the top edge E1 and the bottom edge E2 of the substrate W are simultaneously polished by four polishing heads from the first polishing head 10A to the fourth polishing head 10D, the polishing actions of the adjacent first polishing head 10A and the second polishing head 10B, Four types of grinding operations of the first grinding head 10A and the second grinding head 10B described with reference to FIGS. 6A to 9B are applicable. In addition, the grinding operations of the adjacent third grinding head 10C and the fourth grinding head 10D can be applied to the four types of grinding operations of the first grinding head 10A and the second grinding head 10B described with reference to FIGS. 6A to 9B .

本實施形態係藉由第三研磨頭10C研磨之第三研磨區域、與藉由第四研磨頭10D研磨之第四研磨區域實質地一致。亦即,第五研磨點P5與第八研磨點P8實質地一致,第六研磨點P6與第七研磨點P7實質地一致。藉由第三研磨頭10C開始研磨之第三研磨區域兩端中的一端之第五研磨點P5、與藉由第四研磨頭10D開始研磨之第四研磨區域兩端中的一端之第七研磨點P7在斜角部B中位於相反側。此外,第三研磨區域兩端中之另一端的第六研磨點P6、與第四研磨區域兩端中之另一端的第八研磨點P8在斜角部B中位於相反側。In this embodiment, the third polishing area polished by the third polishing head 10C and the fourth polishing area polished by the fourth polishing head 10D are substantially the same. That is, the fifth polishing point P5 substantially coincides with the eighth polishing point P8, and the sixth polishing point P6 substantially coincides with the seventh polishing point P7.

In one embodiment, the third grinding head 10C can be further tilted in the third direction D3 to repeatedly perform the grinding action shown in FIG. 19C to grind the third grinding area back and forth a plurality of times. Alternatively, the third polishing head 10C may not be tilted in the fourth direction D4, but the third polishing area may be partially polished in a single pass.

如圖19D所示,第四研磨頭10D將第四研磨帶2D按壓於第七研磨點P7開始研磨第四研磨區域。其次,在以第四研磨頭10D將第四研磨帶2D按壓於基板W的狀態下,藉由第四研磨頭傾斜移動機構使第四研磨頭10D在第四方向D4傾斜移動至第八研磨點P8。第四方向D4與參照圖19C所說明之第四方向D4相同。As shown in FIG. 19D , the fourth polishing head 10D presses the fourth polishing belt 2D to the seventh polishing point P7 to start polishing the fourth polishing area. Next, with the fourth polishing head 10D pressing the fourth polishing tape 2D against the substrate W, the fourth polishing head tilt movement mechanism causes the fourth polishing head 10D to tilt in the fourth direction D4 to the eighth polishing point. P8. The fourth direction D4 is the same as the fourth direction D4 described with reference to FIG. 19C .

再者,在以第四研磨頭10D將第四研磨帶2D按壓於基板W的狀態下,藉由第四研磨頭傾斜移動機構使第四研磨頭10D在第三方向D3傾斜移動至第七研磨點P7。第三方向D3與參照圖19C所說明之第三方向D3相同。藉此,第四研磨頭10D往返1次研磨第四研磨區域。一種實施形態亦可進一步使第四研磨頭10D在第四方向D4傾斜移動,反覆進行圖19D所示之研磨動作,而複數次往返研磨第四研磨區域。或是,亦可不使第四研磨頭10D在第三方向D3傾斜移動,而單程部分研磨第四研磨區域。Furthermore, in a state where the fourth polishing belt 2D is pressed against the substrate W by the fourth polishing head 10D, the fourth polishing head 10D is tilted in the third direction D3 to the seventh polishing position by the fourth polishing head tilt movement mechanism. Click P7. The third direction D3 is the same as the third direction D3 described with reference to FIG. 19C . Thereby, the fourth polishing head 10D polishes the fourth polishing area in one round trip. In one embodiment, the fourth grinding head 10D can be further tilted in the fourth direction D4 to repeatedly perform the grinding action shown in FIG. 19D to grind the fourth grinding area back and forth a plurality of times. Alternatively, the fourth grinding head 10D may not be tilted in the third direction D3, but the fourth grinding area may be partially ground in a single pass.

藉由第一研磨頭10A研磨之第一研磨區域、藉由第二研磨頭10B研磨之第二研磨區域、藉由第三研磨頭10C研磨之第三研磨區域、與藉由第四研磨頭10D研磨之第四研磨區域實質地一致。此外,第一方向D1與第四方向D4實質地一致,第二方向D2與第三方向D3實質地一致。The first polishing area polished by the first polishing head 10A, the second polishing area polished by the second polishing head 10B, the third polishing area polished by the third polishing head 10C, and the fourth polishing head 10D The fourth grinding area of grinding is substantially the same.

When the first grinding head 10A reaches the second grinding point P2, the second grinding head 10B arrives. The timing of the fourth grinding point P4, the timing of the third grinding head 10C reaching the sixth grinding point P6, and the timing of the fourth grinding head 10D reaching the eighth grinding point P8 may also be at the same time. Furthermore, the first grinding head 10A, the second grinding head 10B, the third grinding head 10C, and the fourth grinding head 10D are turned back. When the first grinding head 10A returns to the first grinding point P1, the second grinding head 10B returns to the first grinding point P1. The timing of the third grinding point P3, the timing of the third grinding head 10C returning to the fifth grinding point P5, and the timing of the fourth grinding head 10D returning to the seventh grinding point P7 can also be simultaneous. Furthermore, when polishing is completed, the timing of causing the pressing member 12 of the first polishing head 10A to separate from the substrate W, the timing of causing the pressing member 12 of the second polishing head 10B to separate from the substrate W, and the timing of causing the pressing member 12 of the third polishing head 10C to separate. The timing of separating 12 from the substrate W may be the same as the timing of separating the pressing member 12 of the fourth polishing head 10D from the substrate W.

採用本實施形態時,因為以第一研磨頭10A~第四研磨頭10D同時研磨斜角部B,所以與參照圖10A至圖11B所說明之以第一研磨頭10A與第二研磨頭10B之2個研磨頭研磨斜角部B時比較,可進一步縮短整體研磨處理時間。In this embodiment, since the bevel portion B is ground simultaneously with the first polishing head 10A to the fourth polishing head 10D, it is different from the first polishing head 10A and the second polishing head 10B described with reference to FIGS. 10A to 11B . When comparing the two grinding heads for grinding the bevel part B, the overall grinding processing time can be further shortened.

此外,藉由第三研磨頭10C開始研磨之第五研磨點P5與藉由第四研磨頭10D開始研磨之第七研磨點P7在斜角部B中位於相反側,因為第三研磨頭10C與第四研磨頭10D一邊在作為相反方向之第三方向D3及第四方向D4傾斜移動,一邊研磨基板W,所以第三研磨頭10C引起之按壓力與第四研磨頭10D引起之按壓力對斜角部B賦予相反方向。因此,與第一研磨頭10A與第二研磨頭10B引起之按壓力同樣地,第三研磨頭10C與第四研磨頭10D引起之按壓力不致過大賦予基板W的周緣部,可抑制基板W翹曲。In addition, the fifth grinding point P5 where grinding is started by the third grinding head 10C and the seventh grinding point P7 where grinding is started by the fourth grinding head 10D are located on opposite sides in the bevel portion B because the third grinding head 10C and The fourth polishing head 10D polishes the substrate W while tilting in the third direction D3 and the fourth direction D4, which are opposite directions. Therefore, the pressing force exerted by the third polishing head 10C and the pressing force exerted by the fourth polishing head 10D are oblique. Corner B gives the opposite direction. Therefore, like the pressing force exerted by the first polishing head 10A and the second polishing head 10B, the pressing force exerted by the third polishing head 10C and the fourth polishing head 10D is not excessively applied to the peripheral portion of the substrate W, and warpage of the substrate W can be suppressed. song.

Refer to FIG. 10A The four types of grinding actions of the first grinding head 10A and the second grinding head 10B are explained in FIG. 13B . In addition, the grinding operations of the adjacent third grinding head 10C and the fourth grinding head 10D can be applied to the four types of grinding operations of the first grinding head 10A and the second grinding head 10B described with reference to FIGS. 10A to 13B .

參照圖15A至圖22D所說明之第一研磨頭10A~第四研磨頭10D的研磨動作係一例,一種實施形態係亦可第一研磨頭10A與第二研磨頭10B適用參照圖6A至圖9B所說明之第一研磨頭10A與第二研磨頭10B的研磨動作,而同時研磨基板W之頂邊緣部E1及底邊緣部E2,與此動作同時進行,第三研磨頭10C與第四研磨頭10D適用參照圖10A至圖13B所說明之第一研磨頭10A與第二研磨頭10B的研磨動作,而同時研磨基板W之斜角部B。如此,第一研磨頭10A~第四研磨頭10D可組合圖6A至圖13B所示之研磨動作來實施。The polishing operations of the first polishing head 10A to the fourth polishing head 10D described with reference to FIGS. 15A to 22D are an example.

Simultaneously with this action, the third polishing head 10C and the fourth polishing head 10C simultaneously polish the top edge E1 and the bottom edge E2 of the substrate W. 10D applies the polishing action of the first polishing head 10A and the second polishing head 10B described with reference to FIGS. 10A to 13B to simultaneously polish the bevel portion B of the substrate W. In this way, the first grinding head 10A to the fourth grinding head 10D can be implemented in combination with the grinding actions shown in FIGS. 6A to 13B .

圖23A及圖23B係用於說明以4個研磨頭研磨基板W之周緣部的又其他實施形態圖。由於不特別說明之本實施形態的研磨裝置之構成與參照圖14所說明的研磨裝置之構成相同,因此省略其重複之說明。本實施形態在第一研磨頭10A~第四研磨頭10D中,係以第一研磨頭10A及第二研磨頭10B同時研磨基板W之周緣部後,再以其他之第三研磨頭10C及第四研磨頭10D同時研磨基板W之周緣部。23A and 23B are diagrams illustrating yet another embodiment of polishing the peripheral portion of the substrate W using four polishing heads. Since the configuration of the polishing device of this embodiment is the same as that of the polishing device described with reference to FIG. 14 , a repeated description thereof will be omitted. In this embodiment, among the first to fourth polishing heads 10A to 10D, after the first polishing head 10A and the second polishing head 10B simultaneously polish the peripheral portion of the substrate W, the third polishing head 10C and the third polishing head 10B are then used. The four polishing heads 10D polish the peripheral edge of the substrate W simultaneously.

圖23A顯示藉由第一研磨頭10A及第二研磨頭10B研磨基板W之周緣部的情形。第一研磨頭10A配置於可研磨基板W之頂邊緣部E1的位置,第二研磨頭10B配置於可研磨基板W之底邊緣部E2的位置。第三研磨頭10C及第四研磨頭10D則配置於基板W之半徑方向外側的非研磨位置。FIG. 23A shows how the peripheral edge of the substrate W is polished by the first polishing head 10A and the second polishing head 10B. The first polishing head 10A is disposed at a position capable of polishing the top edge E1 of the substrate W, and the second polishing head 10B is disposed at a position capable of polishing the bottom edge E2 of the substrate W. The third polishing head 10C and the fourth polishing head 10D are arranged at a non-polishing position outside the substrate W in the radial direction.

供給至第一研磨頭10A之第一研磨帶2A、及供給至第二研磨頭10B之第二研磨帶2B在研磨面上具有粗的磨粒。第一研磨頭10A及第二研磨頭10B分別同時粗研磨基板W之頂邊緣部E1內的第一研磨區域及基板W之底邊緣部E2內的第二研磨區域。由於第一研磨頭10A及第二研磨頭10B之研磨動作,與參照圖6A及圖6B所說明之第一研磨頭10A及第二研磨頭10B的研磨動作相同,因此省略其重複之說明。The first polishing tape 2A supplied to the first polishing head 10A and the second polishing tape 2B supplied to the second polishing head 10B have coarse abrasive grains on the polishing surface. The first polishing head 10A and the second polishing head 10B roughly polish the first polishing area in the top edge E1 of the substrate W and the second polishing area in the bottom edge E2 of the substrate W simultaneously. Since the grinding operations of the first grinding head 10A and the second grinding head 10B are the same as those of the first grinding head 10A and the second grinding head 10B described with reference to FIGS. 6A and 6B , repeated descriptions thereof are omitted.

然後,如圖23B所示,第一研磨頭10A及第二研磨頭10B配置於基板W之半徑方向外側的非研磨位置。第三研磨頭10C配置於可研磨基板W之底邊緣部E2的位置,第四研磨頭10D配置於可研磨基板W之頂邊緣部E1的位置。供給至第三研磨頭10C之第三研磨帶2C、及供給至第四研磨頭10D之第四研磨帶2D在研磨面具有細的磨粒。Then, as shown in FIG. 23B , the first polishing head 10A and the second polishing head 10B are arranged at non-polishing positions on the outside of the substrate W in the radial direction. The third polishing head 10C is disposed at a position where the bottom edge E2 of the substrate W can be polished, and the fourth polishing head 10D is disposed at a position where the top edge E1 of the substrate W can be polished. The third polishing tape 2C supplied to the third polishing head 10C and the fourth polishing tape 2D supplied to the fourth polishing head 10D have fine abrasive grains on the polishing surface.

第三研磨頭10C及第四研磨頭10D分別同時加工研磨基板W之底邊緣部E2內的第三研磨區域及基板W之頂邊緣部E1內的第四研磨區域。由於第三研磨頭10C及第四研磨頭10D之研磨動作,與參照圖8A及圖8B所說明之第一研磨頭10A及第二研磨頭10B的研磨動作相同,因此省略其重複之說明。第三研磨頭10C研磨已經被第二研磨頭10B研磨過之第二研磨區域。亦即,第三研磨區域與第二研磨區域係相同區域。第四研磨頭10D研磨已經被第一研磨頭10A研磨過之第一研磨區域。亦即,第四研磨區域與第一研磨區域係相同區域。The third polishing head 10C and the fourth polishing head 10D simultaneously process the third polishing area in the bottom edge E2 of the polishing substrate W and the fourth polishing area in the top edge E1 of the substrate W respectively. Since the grinding operations of the third grinding head 10C and the fourth grinding head 10D are the same as the grinding operations of the first grinding head 10A and the second grinding head 10B described with reference to FIGS. 8A and 8B , repeated descriptions thereof are omitted. The third grinding head 10C grinds the second grinding area that has been grinded by the second grinding head 10B. That is, the third polishing area and the second polishing area are the same area. The fourth grinding head 10D grinds the first grinding area that has been grinded by the first grinding head 10A. That is, the fourth polishing area and the first polishing area are the same area.

採用本實施形態時,藉由第一研磨頭10A與第二研磨頭10B之2個研磨頭粗研磨頂邊緣部E1之第一研磨區域與底邊緣部E2的第二研磨區域後,立刻藉由第三研磨頭10C與第四研磨頭10D之2個研磨頭加工研磨頂邊緣部E1之第一研磨區域(第四研磨區域)與底邊緣部E2之第二研磨區域(第三研磨區域)。因此,與以1個研磨頭研磨頂邊緣部E1及底邊緣部E2時比較,可縮短整體研磨處理時間。再者,因為不需要從具有用於粗研磨之粗的磨粒之研磨帶更換成具有用於加工研磨之細的磨粒之研磨帶,所以可縮短整體研磨處理時間。When this embodiment is adopted, after the first polishing area of the top edge part E1 and the second polishing area of the bottom edge part E2 are roughly polished by the two polishing heads of the first polishing head 10A and the second polishing head 10B, The two grinding heads of the third grinding head 10C and the fourth grinding head 10D process and grind the first grinding area (the fourth grinding area) of the top edge part E1 and the second grinding area (the third grinding area) of the bottom edge part E2. Therefore, compared with the case where one polishing head is used to polish the top edge portion E1 and the bottom edge portion E2, the overall polishing processing time can be shortened. Furthermore, since there is no need to change the polishing belt having coarse abrasive grains for rough grinding to a polishing belt having fine abrasive grains for process grinding, the overall grinding process time can be shortened.

此外,第一研磨區域與第二研磨區域位於相反側,因為第一研磨頭10A與第二研磨頭10B一邊在作為相反方向之第一方向D1及第二方向D2移動,一邊研磨基板W,從而在相反方向賦予第一研磨頭10A引起之按壓力與第二研磨頭10B引起之按壓力。因此,如參照圖24之說明,第一研磨頭10A與第二研磨頭10B引起之按壓力不致過大賦予基板W的周緣部,可抑制基板W之翹曲。即使關於第三研磨頭10C與第四研磨頭10D對第三研磨區域與第四研磨區域之研磨仍可獲得同樣效果。In addition, the first polishing area and the second polishing area are located on opposite sides, because the first polishing head 10A and the second polishing head 10B polish the substrate W while moving in the first direction D1 and the second direction D2 which are opposite directions, so that The pressing force caused by the first polishing head 10A and the pressing force caused by the second polishing head 10B are applied in opposite directions. Therefore, as explained with reference to FIG. 24 , the pressing force caused by the first polishing head 10A and the second polishing head 10B is not excessively applied to the peripheral portion of the substrate W, and warpage of the substrate W can be suppressed. Even if the third grinding head 10C and the fourth grinding head 10D grind the third grinding area and the fourth grinding area, the same effect can still be obtained.

再者,採用本實施形態時,因為第一研磨頭10A與第二研磨頭10B一邊在作為相反方向之第一方向D1及第二方向D2移動,一邊研磨基板W,所以可防止在使第一研磨頭10A與第二研磨頭10B從基板W之頂邊緣部側與底邊緣部側的兩側按壓而移動時,基板W與第一研磨頭10A及第二研磨頭10B一起移動,對基板保持部5基板位置偏移。即使關於第三研磨頭10C與第四研磨頭10D對第三研磨區域與第四研磨區域之研磨仍可獲得同樣效果。Furthermore, in this embodiment, since the first polishing head 10A and the second polishing head 10B polish the substrate W while moving in the first direction D1 and the second direction D2 which are opposite directions, it is possible to prevent the first polishing head 10A and the second polishing head 10B from polishing the substrate W. When the polishing head 10A and the second polishing head 10B are pressed and moved from both sides of the top edge side and the bottom edge side of the substrate W, the substrate W moves together with the first polishing head 10A and the second polishing head 10B to hold the substrate W. Part 5 substrate position deviation. Even if the third grinding head 10C and the fourth grinding head 10D grind the third grinding area and the fourth grinding area, the same effect can still be obtained.

第一研磨頭10A與第二研磨頭10B之研磨動作、及第三研磨頭10C與第四研磨頭10D之研磨動作不限於本實施形態,亦可係參照圖6A至圖9B所說明之頂邊緣部E1及底邊緣部E2的研磨動作之任何一種類型。其他實施形態係第一研磨頭10A與第二研磨頭10B之研磨動作、及第三研磨頭10C與第四研磨頭10D之研磨動作亦可適用於研磨基板W之斜角部B的情況。例如,第一研磨頭10A與第二研磨頭10B之研磨動作、及第三研磨頭10C與第四研磨頭10D之研磨動作亦可係參照圖10A及圖10B所說明之斜角部B的研磨動作。The grinding action of the first grinding head 10A and the second grinding head 10B, and the grinding action of the third grinding head 10C and the fourth grinding head 10D are not limited to this embodiment, and may also be based on the top edge explained with reference to FIGS. 6A to 9B Any type of grinding action of the part E1 and the bottom edge part E2. In other embodiments, the polishing action of the first polishing head 10A and the second polishing head 10B, and the polishing action of the third polishing head 10C and the fourth polishing head 10D can also be applied to polishing the bevel portion B of the substrate W. For example, the grinding operations of the first grinding head 10A and the second grinding head 10B, and the grinding operations of the third grinding head 10C and the fourth grinding head 10D can also be based on the grinding of the bevel portion B illustrated in FIGS. 10A and 10B action.
