What it is

General reference — not yet source-verified

The Disco DGP 8760 is a chemical mechanical planarization (CMP) polisher used in semiconductor manufacturing. CMP polishers remove material from wafer surfaces to achieve global planarization, combining chemical etching with mechanical abrasion.

How it works

General reference — not yet source-verified

In a typical CMP polisher, a wafer is mounted on a rotating carrier head and pressed against a rotating polishing pad on a platen. A chemically reactive slurry is dispensed onto the pad, where the combined chemical dissolution and mechanical abrasion remove material evenly across the wafer surface. The Disco DGP 8760 operates on this principle as a CMP tool.

Where it fits in the process flow

General reference — not yet source-verified

CMP polishers are used after deposition steps such as dielectric or metal layer formation, to planarize the wafer surface before subsequent lithography or metallization. The Disco DGP 8760 fits in the fabrication sequence following deposition and before patterning steps.

Applications

General reference — not yet source-verified

CMP polishers like the Disco DGP 8760 are applied to planarize interlayer dielectrics, shallow trench isolation, and metal layers such as copper in damascene processes. The tool is used in front-end-of-line and back-end-of-line planarization steps.
