Polishing pad

摘要

A polishing pad provides excellent optical detection accuracy properties over a broad wavelength range (particularly at the short-wavelength side) and is capable of preventing a slurry from leaking from the boundary between a polishing region and a light-transmitting region. The polishing pad includes at least a transparent support film laminated on one side of a polishing layer including a polishing region and a light-transmitting region; the light transmittance of an optical detection region containing at least the light-transmitting region and the transparent support film is 40% or more in the overall range of wavelengths of 300 to 400 nm.
