Abstract

See full text

A method of fabrication of a substrate includes, after deposition of an outer layer on a substrate and before polishing of an exposed surface of the outer layer of the substrate, performing a hydroblasting treatment of a selected portion of the exposed surface by directing a treatment liquid from a nozzle at a sufficiently high velocity onto the selected portion to remove material from the selected portion such that a thickness non-uniformity of the outer layer is reduced. Then the outer layer of the treated substrate is subject to chemical mechanical polishing to planarize and reduce a thickness of the outer layer.
