Title:
WAFER POLISHING METHOD AND WAFER POLISHING APPARATUS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2017/077691
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A wafer polishing method of the present invention is characterized by having: a measuring step for measuring the depth PDt of a recessed section of a template after taking out a polishing-completed wafer, said measuring step being to be performed after an unloading step and prior to a loading step for holding a wafer to be polished next; a calculating step for calculating a difference ∆PD between the thus measured depth PDt of the recessed section, and the depth PD0 of the recessed section of the template before the template is used in the polishing; and an adjusting step for adjusting, in accordance with the thus calculated difference ∆PD, the polishing conditions of the wafer to be polished next. Consequently, the wafer polishing method and a wafer polishing apparatus, whereby wafer flatness fluctuation due to numerical value fluctuation of the pocket depth of the template can be adjusted, are provided.
