METHOD FOR PRODUCING LAYERED POLISHING PADS
The present invention relates to a method for producing a layered circular polishing pad, comprising steps of forming, in a circular polishing sheet, concentric grooves and an outer circumferential region having a width of ½ or more of a groove pitch of the concentric grooves; and bonding the circular polishing sheet and a supporting layer to each other with a bonding member interposed therebetween to produce a layered polishing sheet. According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a method for producing a layered circular polishing pad in which the polishing layer and the supporting layer are not easily peeled from each other.
1 . A method for producing a layered circular polishing pad, comprising steps of: forming, in a circular polishing sheet, concentric grooves and an outer circumferential region having a width of ½ or more of a groove pitch of the concentric grooves; and bonding the circular polishing sheet and a supporting layer to each other with a bonding member interposed therebetween to produce a layered polishing sheet.
2 . A layered circular polishing pad, produced by the method for producing a layered circular polishing pad according to claim 1 .
3 . A layered circular polishing pad, comprising a circular polishing layer and a supporting layer laminated over each other with an adhesive member interposed therebetween, wherein concentric grooves are formed in the polishing layer, the polishing layer has an outer circumferential region in which the concentric grooves are not formed, and the outer circumferential region has a width of ½ or more of a groove pitch of the concentric grooves.
4 . A method for producing a semiconductor device, comprising the step of using the layered circular polishing pad according to claim 2 to polish a surface of a semiconductor wafer.
5 . A method for producing a semiconductor device, comprising the step of using the layered circular polishing pad according to claim 3 to polish a surface of a semiconductor wafer.
