Abstract

A ring extension is provided for use with a semiconductor wafer carrier. The ring extension has a radially inner surface, the lower portion of which contacts a peripheral edge of a wafer to confine the wafer during a polishing operation. A recess or groove is formed in the inner surface and a passageway extending through the ring extension provides pressure relief to prevent slurry build up.
