Wide Trench

Cost and installation time for 2-ft-wide trench in damp sandy loam sloped i to 1. 

For very wide trenches (a large multiple of the pad thickness, depending on the hardness of the pad), the pad conforms easily to both the trench sides and the bottom, and except very close to the sides, the contact pressures and polishing rate are nearly equal. The planarization rate (the rate at which the step height is reduced) is therefore very low, and we could describe the feature as being larger than the pad planarization length. 

The deformation behavior of two pads are shown in Figure 4.14. Which pad shows greater elastic behavior Which pad shows viscoelastic behavior A CMP process is required to planarize a surface with a maximum step height of 5000 A. If the velocity of the pad is 50 cm/sec, which pad will polish faster inside a 5 pm wide trench A 10 pm wide trench A 15 pm wide trench What is the maximum width of a low region that may be planarized by each pad (Note assume that the pad relaxation and deformation behaviors (curves) are similar and symmetric.)... 

Wide trenches of more than 10 ft wide used for sludges with high solid contents. In selecting an area for landfill, various factors like technical, economical, and public acceptance should be considered. 

Figure 2.31 Simulations of leveling during metal solutions are compared. On the left is the quasideposition in 100 nm wide trenches. The leveling steady-state approach where the steady-state agent is assumed to be a large molecule with a value of the current density was used at every diffusion coefficient of 10 7cm2 s. Filling intermediate step. On the right, a domain occurs in 16 s, on the order of the boundary layer decoupled approach was used in order to assess relaxation time, so care must betaken to properly the impact of the transient effects on feature account for transient effects. Two different filling (source Ref. [302]).

Figure 7 Wide trenches created with reactive ion etching.

In order to achieve satisfactory planar surfaces over wide trenches (>10 pm) on a wafer, a double resist coating method was employed. (Refer to Figure 3). The initial resist layer, after application, is exposed with an undersized block-off mask, and, with appropriate processing, will leave the resist only in the depressions of the wide area trenches. The resist thickness of this layer should be about equivalent to, or slightly more than, the depth of the depression - in the present case about 4-5 pm. The resist thickness is also dictated in part by the dimensional difference between the block-off mask size and the trench depression area.

When a wide trench is used, with workers in the trench, pipe is often passed from workers above the trench to workers in the trench. Pipe should never be rolled or tossed into a trench. Occasionally, pipe is lowered into this type of workplace with equipment, such as a backhoe. In all cases, the pipe should be handled carefully and laid in the trench gently.
