Abstract :
We have developed a practical CMP model. The model is based on elastic mechanics. For practical use, some numerical treatments including a new time iteration method are developed. Using the model, numerical errors in a test chip are reduced to less than 1% with 5 minutes EWS calculation time. The simulated results agree with experiments within 5% error
