Abstract

See full text

A polishing pad useful for chemical mechanical planarization has a polishing layer for planarizing substrates. The polishing layer comprises a radius that extends from a center of the polishing layer to an outer perimeter of the polishing layer; one or more continuous grooves formed in the polishing layer and extending inward from the outer perimeter of the polishing layer; and a circumference fraction grooved (CF). The CF occurs in the area extending from the outer perimeter of the polishing layer a majority distance to the center of the polishing layer; and CF is that portion of circumference at a given radius lying across the one or more continuous grooves divided by full circumference at the given radius. The CF remains within 25% of its average value as a function of the polishing layer radius.
