A chemical mechanical polishing apparatus includes a container, a platen, first and second brushes, a polishing pad, a carrier, and a slurry supplier. The container has a bottom wall and a side wall. The side wall has an inwardly-extending upper portion. The platen is supported over the bottom wall. The platen is positioned lower than the inwardly-extending upper portion. The first brush brushes the side wall. The first brush is fixed to a side surface of the platen. The second brush brushes a side surface of the platen. The second brush is fixed to the bottom wall. The polishing pad is attached to the platen. The carrier presses a workpiece to be polished against the polishing pad. The slurry supplier supplies a slurry onto the polishing pad. |
