METHODS OF RECYCLING A SUBSTRATE INCLUDING USING A CHEMICAL MECHANICAL POLISHING PROCESS

摘要

In a method of recycling a substrate having an edge portion on which a stepped portion is formed, the substrate is chemically mechanically polished using a first slurry composition including fumed silica to remove the stepped portion. The substrate is then chemically mechanically polished using a second slurry composition including colloidal silica to improve the surface roughness of the substrate. The substrate having the edge region on which the stepped portion is formed may include a donor substrate used for manufacturing a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) substrate.
