摘要
Chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) causes excessive thinning of large exposed areas (or ''dishing'') due to polishing pad elasticity. Dishing is known to be highly dependent on feature size. For shallow trench isolation (STI) areas below 10 mu m in minimum dimension, a second microscale dishing effect was discovered that is independent of feature size and CMP parameters. A two-step CMP/RIE process, which is fully compatible with STI processing, eliminates microscale dishing.
