Abstract -A novel photo-catalyst incorporated pad is developed for planarization of onaxis Si-face SiC wafer, in order to obtain higher removal rate (MRR) and ultra-smooth surface. The preparation of the photo-catalyst TiO2 incorporated pad is introduced, and the characteristics of the new pad are studied. Planarization performances of SiC wafer using the photo-catalyst incorporated pad under UV light are investigated. MRR by the catalyst incorporated pad is much higher than that by the conventional pad. Meanwhile, the low roughness ultra-smooth surface with atomic step structure could be obtained. The relative removal mechanism of chemical active pad towards the polished SiC surface is also discussed. Keywords: SiC, planarization, polishing, photo-catalyst, pad, removal
