Highlights
  • Enabled by proprietary 3M microreplication technology
  • Extended lifetime and more stable removal rate compared to legacy designs
  • Higher CMP pad wear rate to enable a more durable, lower-lifetime-cost solution
  • Larger grain size for CVD diamond to enable stronger pad activation
  • Improved with new microcrystalline CVD diamond coating technology

3M™ Trizact™ Pad Conditioner T Series delivers precision, consistency and reliability to semiconductor chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) processes. Advanced 3M CVD diamond coating technology offers highly consistent, strong, tunable pad activation for demanding semiconductor CMP specifications and processes, including advanced nodes. Each CMP pad conditioner provides microreplication technology to precisely shape the surface topography for excellent performance, without the risk of micro and macro scratching defects posed by conventional diamond grit abrasives.

    3M™ Trizact™ Pad Conditioner T Series

    3M™ Trizact™ Pad Conditioner T Series maintains the tunable surface topography of 3M™ Trizact™ Pad Conditioners and combines it with increased diamond grain size to strengthen pad activation and reduce pad wear rate. This rougher diamond coating has a higher coefficient of friction that helps reduce pad wear rate by up to 4X.

Frequently asked questions

Yes, 3M™ Trizact™ Pad Conditioner T Series uses a thin diamond layer over a microreplicated ceramic substrate. The cutting surface is metal-free and ideal for sensitive advanced node processes.
Selecting a CMP pad conditioner requires compatibility testing to ensure that your CMP pad, wafer and slurry combination will perform optimally. Our technical team has data packages for many common chemistries — tungsten to copper, poly to STI, and many more — that have been proven compatible with our products. We can also test custom combinations at our labs around the world.
3M™ Trizact™ Pad Conditioner T Series builds on the proven technology of 3M™ Trizact™ Pad Conditioners. These CMP pad conditioners have a rougher surface topography optimized for stronger pad activation and a reduced pad wear rate.
