The Semitron® CMP product line was developed to give new tool designers and forward-thinking end users an opportunity to increase the number of devices successfully produced per wafer while decreasing the cost of consumables per device. This is achieved by increasing the service life of the retaining ring.
Semitron® CMP XL20 is the premium CMP material developed by Quadrant's Research & Development Team. It is charcoal/black in color and opaque.
