Abstract

We proposed a novel CMP process by using the poly-hydroxylated fullerene ( C60(OH)36 ). It is previously reported that the copper surface was improved from 16.5 nm RMS to 1 nm RMS using the C60(OH)36 molecule as an abrasive grain. However, the polishing rate is the drawback. Then, in this paper, the polishing rate was controlled using the size-controllable C60(OH)36 cluster from 1 to 200 nm by the UV laser irradiation. Consequently, the higher polishing rate (Max 300 nm/min) is achieved.
