초록

Silicon carbide (SiC) is used as a substrate material for power semiconductors; however, SiC chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) requires considerable time owing to its chemical stability and high hardness. Therefore, researchers are attempting to increase the material removal rate (MRR) of SiC CMP using various methods. Mixed-abrasive CMP (MAS CMP) is one method of increasing the material removal efficiency of CMP by mixing two or more particles. The aim of this research is to study the mathematical modeling of the MRR of MAS CMP of SiC with SiO2 and TiO2 particles. With a total particle concentration of 32 wt, using 80-nm SiO2particles and 25-nm TiO2 particles maximizes the MRR at 8 wt of the TiO2 particle concentration. In the case of 5 nm TiO2 particles, the MRR tends to increase with an increase in TiO2 concentration. In the case of particle size 10-25 nm TiO2, as the particle concentration increases, the MRR increases to a certain level and then decreases again. TiO2 particles of 25 nm or more continuously decreased MRR as the particle concentration increased. In the model proposed in this study, the MRR of MAS CMP of SiC increases linearly with changes in pressure and relative speed, which shows the same result as the Preston's equation. These results can contribute to the future design of MAS; however, the model needs to be verified and improved in future experiments.

Abstract

Silicon carbide (SiC) is used as a substrate material for power semiconductors; however, SiC chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) requires considerable time owing to its chemical stability and high hardness. Therefore, researchers are attempting to increase the material removal rate (MRR) of SiC CMP using various methods. Mixed-abrasive CMP (MAS CMP) is one method of increasing the material removal efficiency of CMP by mixing two or more particles. The aim of this research is to study the mathematical modeling of the MRR of MAS CMP of SiC with SiO2 and TiO2 particles. With a total particle concentration of 32 wt, using 80-nm SiO2particles and 25-nm TiO2 particles maximizes the MRR at 8 wt of the TiO2 particle concentration. In the case of 5 nm TiO2 particles, the MRR tends to increase with an increase in TiO2 concentration. In the case of particle size 10-25 nm TiO2, as the particle concentration increases, the MRR increases to a certain level and then decreases again. TiO2 particles of 25 nm or more continuously decreased MRR as the particle concentration increased. In the model proposed in this study, the MRR of MAS CMP of SiC increases linearly with changes in pressure and relative speed, which shows the same result as the Preston's equation. These results can contribute to the future design of MAS; however, the model needs to be verified and improved in future experiments.
