ABSTRACTIn the semiconductor industry, there is a need to establish fundamental, mechanism-based, correlation(s) between process conditions, consumables (e.g., pads and slurries), and observed process performance in Chemical-Mechanical Polishing (CMP). In this paper, we present recent results of studies on polyurethane-based CMP pads in static and dynamic conditions using Dynamic Mechanical Analysis (DMA) to monitor modulus and energy damping changes. Two-layered, composite IC1000 on Suba IV pads, [IC1000 (cast and cured polyurethane elastomer) / Suba IV (polyurethane impregnated polyester felt)], were analyzed: prior to use (fresh); after a 24-hr soak in silica-containing oxide slurry (basic); and after oxide polishing (used). Upon comparison it was observed that a characteristic transition feature due to water is present at sub-ambient temperatures in both the slurry soaked and used pads. Exposure of as-received pads to basic oxide slurry results in a broad, high temperature transition thought to be the result of chemical-induced disruption of macrostructural units. Polishing (load-enhanced chemical exposure) introduces further changes to the polymer network represented by an apparent degradation to the structural species responsible for the high temperature transition in Suba IV.

ABSTRACTThis paper describes the blends of epoxy/polybutadiene and the application of the blends to the encapsulation of capacitors. Experiments showed that the hydroxy-carboxyl terminated polybutadiene (HCTPB) had a good toughening effect on epoxy resins, and the blends of epoxy/HTPB or epoxy/HCTPB had good craze resistance at low temperatures. The phase separation and dynamic mechanical analysis of these blends are discussed below.
