CIRCULAR POLISHING PAD

摘要

A circular polishing pad includes a circular polishing layer having XY grid grooves on a polishing surface. The center point of the circular polishing layer is offset in a region (Z) (including imaginary straight lines) enclosed by three imaginary straight lines (A, B, and C) each shifted by a groove pitch of 5% in relation to reference lines defined by an X groove or a Y groove. The circular polishing pad can minimize polishing unevenness on the surface of a material to be polished.

1. A circular polishing pad including a circular polishing layer having XY grid grooves on a polishing surface, wherein the center point of the circular polishing layer is offset in a region Z (including imaginary straight lines) enclosed by the following three imaginary straight lines A, B and C:
imaginary straight line A: a straight line joining a point on an X groove or a Y groove with a point shifted by a groove pitch of 5% in a direction perpendicular to the X groove or Y groove, imaginary straight line B: a straight line joining a point on one diagonal line D of an XY grid groove with a point shifted by a groove pitch of 5% in a direction perpendicular to the diagonal line D, and imaginary straight line C: a straight line joining a point on the other diagonal line E of the XY grid groove with a point shifted by a groove pitch of 5% in a direction perpendicular to the diagonal line E.
