Polishing pad and method for manufacture of semiconductor device using the same

摘要

The present invention provides a polishing pad which imparts excellent planarity and uniformity thereof to a material to be polished, such as a semiconductor wafer, without forming scratches. The present invention relates to a semiconductor wafer polishing pad comprising a polishing layer and a cushion layer, wherein the polishing layer is formed from foamed polyurethane, has a flexural modulus of 250 to 350 MPa, the cushion layer is formed from closed-cell foam and has a thickness of 0.5 to 1.0 mm and a strain constant of 0.01 to 0.08 mum/(gf/cm²).
