Abstract

A cleaner for a CMP apparatus includes a cleaning body, a plurality of cleaning nozzles, a vision system and a controller. The cleaning body may be arranged under a polishing head of the CMP apparatus configured to hold a substrate. The cleaning body may be configured to receive a cleaning solution for cleaning the polishing head. The cleaning nozzles may be arranged at the cleaning body to inject the cleaning solutions to the polishing head. The vision system may photograph the polishing head to which the cleaning solution may be injected to obtain an image of the polishing head. The controller may individually control amounts of the cleaning solutions injected from the cleaning nozzles based on the image of the polishing head. Thus, a scratch caused by a defect may not be generated at the substrate.
