PLP / Precision Lapping & Polishing

Lapping is a mechanical process in which a hard metal rotating plate (made by cast iron) is covered with an abrasive slurry in order to remove material from a substrate. High material removal rates and good surface quality and thickness uniformity can be obtained by lapping.

According to the desired surface quality, an ultra-precision finishing process then follows, namely polishing. Wafers will go through superfinishing in order to create surfaces of small roughness even mirror-like ones. Mirror finish of a lapped/thin wafer is achieved using diamond slurries placed on a variety of different polishing clothes.
