The multilevel partitioning alternately uses two FM variants in the refinement stage to give a more uniform wire distribution. The global placement is based on a top-down recursive bisection framework. The partitioning algorithm is used in the bisectioning to impact the wire density uniformity. Tests show that, with a 10% constraint, the partitioning produces solutions with more balanced edge weights that are 837% better than from hMetis, 1039.1% better than MLPart, and 762.9% better than FM in terms of imbalance proportion and that this global placement algorithm improves ROOSTER with a more uniform wire distribution by 3.1% on average with an increased wire length of only 3.0%.展开更多

The results show that, during the first step CMP in the alumina slurry, a high material removal rate is reached, and the average roughness (Ra) and the average waviness (Wa) of the polished surfaces can be decreased from previous 1.4 nm and 1.6 nm to about 0.6 nm and 0.7 nm, respectively. By using the nanometer silica slurry and optimized polishing process parameters in the second step CMP, the Ra and the Wa of the polished surfaces can be further reduced to 0.038 nm and 0.06 am, respectively. Atom force microscopy (AFM) analysis shows that the final polished surfaces are ultra-smooth without micro-defects.展开更多
