- polishing pad for semiconductor device manufacturing use even if a large number of wafers are polished for a long time, the change in polishing performance is small and long life is required from the viewpoint of cost reduction, quality control, etc.
- polishing pads With conventional polishing pads, the polishing performance tends to change when polishing is continued for a long time, and there is room for further improvement in order to extend the life of the polishing pad.

- the polishing pad of the present invention has at least a polishing layer, and further has a groove opened on the polishing side surface of the polishing layer and a hole opened on the polishing side surface of the polishing layer.
- a groove is provided on the polishing side surface of the polishing layer as in a conventional polishing pad, for example, a closed groove shape having no discharge path to the outside of the polishing pad, such as a concentric groove, has a low polishing dust discharging property. Therefore, scratches are likely to occur on the wafer surface.
- polishing slurry is easily discharged, but polishing slurry is also easily discharged, so the polishing slurry is evenly and sufficiently supplied to the wafer surface. It becomes difficult to increase the supply amount of the polishing slurry, and as a result, the running cost tends to increase.
- the polishing pad of the present invention can improve the polishing performance such as high polishing rate, excellent polishing uniformity, low scratch and the like in a well-balanced manner by having both grooves and holes opened on the polishing side surface of the polishing layer. .
- the polishing pad of the present invention must satisfy the following (1), where X is the depth of the groove, Y is the depth of the hole, and Z is the thickness of the polishing layer. is there.

- the depth of the groove is the distance from the polishing side surface (plane) to the deepest part of the groove, and the depth of the hole is the distance from the polishing side surface (plane) to the deepest part of the hole.
- the polishing layer is made of a hard material and has a non-foamed structure, processing is difficult compared to foamed resin, so when forming the through hole, burrs are generated or deformed around the through hole.
- Cheap Even with non-through holes, if the thickness of the polishing layer at the bottom of the hole is reduced to form a deep hole, the back side of the polishing layer tends to swell at the hole when the hole is formed by cutting, etc. Unevenness is likely to occur, and both polishing uniformity and planarization performance tend to decrease.

Abstract
L'invention porte sur un tampon à polir comprenant au moins une couche de polissage. Le tampon à polir est caractérisé en ce que le tampon à polir possède des stries ouvertes vers la surface du côté de polissage de la couche de polissage et des trous ouverts vers la surface du côté de polissage de la couche de polissage, la surface de l'ouverture des trous n'étant pas inférieure à 0,05 mm2, et la profondeur des stries, la profondeur des trous et l'épaisseur de la couche de polissage satisfaisant à la formule (1) :
(1) Z > X > Y
dans laquelle X représente la profondeur des stries ; Y représente la profondeur des trous ; et Z représente l'épaisseur de la couche de polissage. Le tampon à polir est particulièrement utile, par exemple, pour le polissage chimico-mécanique, par exemple d'un film isolant tel qu'un film d'oxyde ou un film métallique formé sur une tranche de semi-conducteurs, il peut réaliser une vitesse de polissage élevée, une uniformité de polissage élevée et des propriétés d'aplatissement ; il est moins probable qu'il provoque un éraflement, et il ne provoque aucun changement significatif sur le plan des propriétés de polissage même lorsque le polissage est poursuivi pendant une longue période de temps.
