Authors: Radhakrishnan Kanthavel , Ramakrishnan Dhaya , Khalaf Osamah Ibrahim , Uddin Mueen , Chen Chin-Ling , Wu Chih-Ming
Published: June 2022

Wireless Underground Sensor Networks (WUSNs) have been showing prospective supervising application domains in the underground region of the earth through sensing, computation, and communication. This paper presents a novel Deep Learning (DL)-based Cooperative communication channel model for Wireless Underground Sensor Networks for accurate and reliable monitoring in hostile underground locations. Furthermore, the proposed communication model aims at the effective utilization of cluster-based Cooperative models through the relay nodes. However, by keeping the cost effectiveness, reliability, and user-friendliness of wireless underground sensor networks through inter-cluster Cooperative transmission between two cluster heads, the determination of the overall energy performance is also measured. The energy co-operative channel allocation routing (ECCAR), Energy Hierarchical Optimistic Routing (EHOR), Non-Cooperative, and Dynamic Energy Routing (DER) methods were used to figure out how well the proposed WUSN works. The Quality of Service (QoS) parameters such as transmission time, throughput, packet loss, and efficiency were used in order to evaluate the performance of the proposed WUSNs. From the simulation results, it is apparently seen that the proposed system demonstrates some superiority over other methods in terms of its better energy utilization of 89.71%, Packet Delivery ratio of 78.2%, Average Packet Delay of 82.3%, Average Network overhead of 77.4%, data packet throughput of 83.5% and an average system packet loss of 91%.
Point-Wise Phase Estimation Method in Fringe Projection Profilometry under Non-Sinusoidal Distortion
Authors: Yin Zhuoyi , Liu Cong , Zhang Chuang , He Xiaoyuan , Yang Fujun
Published: June 2022

In fringe projection profilometry, high-order harmonics information of distorted fringe will lead to errors in the phase estimation. In order to solve this problem, a point-wise phase estimation method based on a neural network (PWPE-NN) is proposed in this paper. The complex nonlinear mapping relationship between the gray values and the phase under non-sinusoidal distortion is constructed by using the simple neural network model. It establishes a novel implicit expression for phase solution without complicated measurement operations. Compared with the previous method of combining local image information, it can accurately calculate each phase value by point. The comparison results show that the traditional method is with periodic phase errors, while the proposed method can effectively eliminate phase errors caused by non-sinusoidal phase shifting.

Authors: Pessanha Barros Júlia , Batista de Sousa Carlos Eduardo
Published: June 2022

Introdução. O sono pode ser definido como uma suspensão normal da consciência e está relacionado com mudanças na atividade elétrica do cérebro. Os distúrbios do sono podem afetar a memória e o aprendizado. Novas experiências dão origem a novos conhecimentos cujas consequências são mudanças nas conexões neurais. Os distúrbios do sono, especialmente a privação crônica do sono, podem interferir na aprendizagem e na memória. Objetivo. Refletir sobre a relação entre a privação crônica de sono e os impactos no desempenho escolar/acadêmico. Método. Revisão sistemática, conforme recomendado pelo Preferred Reporting Intens for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyzes (PRISMA). As bases de dados eletrônicas Scopus, Portal Periódico CAPES e Biblioteca Digital Brasileira de Teses e Dissertações (BDTD) serviram de base para a pesquisa por meio da combinação de termos específicos, com recorte temporal dos últimos 10 anos. Resultados. Após a busca sistemática, encontramos um total de 88 artigos. Porém, aplicando os critérios de inclusão e exclusão, 9 artigos foram selecionados para leitura na íntegra. Os estudos analisam a privação de sono entre adolescentes/adultos jovens e discutem possíveis formas de reduzir os impactos desse transtorno. Conclusão. As causas da privação de sono podem ser fisiológicas ou comportamentais. As alterações do sono podem impactar negativamente no desempenho escolar/acadêmico e na saúde do indivíduo. Alternativas para reduzir o impacto da privação de sono na população adolescente e adulta jovem deveriam considerar o reajuste do horário de início das aulas e a implementação de programas de educação do sono.
Intervenciones a la materialidad de la edición infantil. El caso de la manipulación digital de los Libros del Rincón en contexto de Pandemia
Authors: Ramírez Martinell Paola , Garone Gravier Marina
Published: June 2022

Desde inicios del 2020, en paralelo al confinamiento sanitario por Covid, en redes sociales han circulado vínculos para descargar títulos pertenecientes a la colección de los Libros del Rincón, los cuales nutren las bibliotecas de las escuelas públicas mexicanas de nivel básico. La revisión aleatoria y el análisis descriptivo de 100 de estas obras nos ha llevado a corroborar que la digitalización no solo se trata de un proceso de conversión mecánica de lo análogo a lo digital, sino de una operación que involucra interpretaciones, decisiones, e intervenciones materiales que pueden alterar tanto la presentación de una obra como la construcción de su significado. Además, las intervenciones que docentes hacen al digitalizar obras literarias amplían las reflexiones en torno a las nociones de literatura y edición infantil, y generan espacios para repensar el acceso abierto.
Selaginella rachipterygia (Selaginellaceae–Lycopodiophyta), a Notable New Species from Colombia and Ecuador, and New Distribution Records for S. simplex
Authors: Valdespino Iván , López Christian A. , Cornejo Xavier
Published: June 2022

We describe and illustrate Selaginella rachipterygia Valdespino, Cornejo & C. López as a new species found on the inter-Andean eastern slopes of the Central Cordillera of Colombia and on the slopes on both sides of the Andes of Ecuador and compare it to S. flagellata Spring. Selaginella rachipterygia is notable for its often flagelliform branch, stem, and strobilus tips, which are often gemmiferous, and by its lateral leaves perpendicular to the main stems below the first branches, which give the stems the appearance of having wings. In addition, we document the expanded distribution range of S. simplex Baker to include Panama and Ecuador. Finally, we contrast S. simplex with the similarly small-sized species S. correae Valdespino and S. minima Spring, which overlap either in part of or throughout their distribution ranges.

In contracting work, there are three groups of people who are interested, namely the company that provides chartering work (the company that provides the charter), the company that accepts the work of chartering (the company that accepts the charter), and workers. The Contracting Company may submit part of the work implementation to the Contracting Recipient Company. This is carried out through a written Contract of Work Agreement. It must contain provisions that guarantee the fulfillment of the rights of workers/laborers in the emerging employment relationship. Since December 9, 2011 Bank Indonesia issued Bank Indonesia Regulation No.13/25/PBI/2011 concerning Prudential Principles for Commercial Banks in Delegating Work to Other Companies, requiring banking companies in Indonesia to follow these rules in drafting Job Contracting Agreements with Another company. This is inseparable from the decision of the Constitutional Court no. 27/PUU-IX/2011 decision dated January 17, 2012. Based on the description above, the author feels interested in researching this problem and intends to put the results of the research into a scientific paper entitled The Effect of Bank Indonesia Regulation No. 13/25/PBI/2011 concerning Prudential Principles for Commercial Banks in Delegating Work to Other Companies with the Decision of the Constitutional Court No. 27/PUU-IX/2011 Related to the Implementation of Part of the Work between Banking Companies and Non-Banking Companies.

Effect of Spectrogram Parameters and Noise Types on The Performance of Spectro-temporal Peaks Based Audio Search Method
Authors: KÖSEOĞLU Murat , UYANIK Hakan
Published: June 2022

Audio search algorithms are used to detect the queried file in large databases, especially in multimedia applications. These algorithms are expected to perform the detection in a reliable and robust way within the shortest time. In this study, based on spectral peaks method, an audio fingerprint algorithm with a few minor modifications was developed to detect the matching audio file in target database. This method has two stages as the audio fingerprint extraction and matching. In the first stage, fingerprint features are extracted from spectral peaks on the spectrograms of audio files by hash functions. This state-of-art technique reduces the processing load and time considerably compared to traditional methods. In the second stage, fingerprint data of the queried file are compared with the data created in the first stage in the database. The algorithm was demonstrated, and the effect of spectrogram parameters (window size, overlap, number of FFT) was investigated by considering reliability and robustness under different noise sources. Also, it was aimed to contribute to new audio retrieval studies based on spectral peaks method. It was observed that the variation in the spectrogram parameters significantly affected the number of matchings, reliability and robustness. Under high noise conditions, the optimal spectrogram parameters were determined as 512 (window size), 50% (overlap), 512 (number of FFT). It was seen in general that the algorithm successfully detected the queried file in the database even in high noise conditions for these parameters. No significant effect of music genre was observed.

Authors: ÇETİNKAYA Sevil , KÜTÜK Nurşah
Published: June 2022

The study focused on the green synthesis of lead oxide nanoparticles (PbO-NPs) using green tea extract and its use for photocatalytic degradation. The effect of experimental conditions such as green tea extract concentrations and reaction temperatures on the structure and size of PbO-NPs has been investigated. Reaction temperatures of 25, 50 and 85 ℃ and green tea extract concentrations of 5, 10, 20, 40, 80 and 100 mg/mL were used for preparing of PbO-NPs. Amount of the phenolic acid contained in the green tea extracts was determined according to the Folin-Cioceltau method. The synthesized PbO-NPs were further confirmed by UV–visible Spectroscopy, Fourier Infrared Transformation Spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Energy Dispersive (EDX) analysis. Tetragonal and orthorhombic morphology of PbO-NPs were observed in SEM images. While the crystallite structure of the PbO-NPs was obtained for the samples prepared using 5 and 10 mg/mL extract concentration for all reaction temperatures, the amorphous structures of PbO-NPs were seen for the samples prepared using extract concentrations of 20, 40, 80 and 100 mg/mL. Finally, PbO-NPs catalyst was tested for the degradation of methylene blue (MB) under UV light. The effect of dye concentration, catalyst amount and pH on degradation were investigated. By determining suitable experimental conditions, MB degradation reached 89% with PbO-NPs in 60 minutes. The reaction kinetics of MB removal from aqueous solution under UV lamp and in the dark media were compared for first-order and second-order reaction kinetics.

Published: June 2022

The block material taken from the light brown, dirty yellow, beige and cream colored lacustrine limestones (Gödene stone) of the Upper Miocene Ulumuhsine formation, located between the villages of Hatip-Pamukçu-Dikmeli-Karagın-Çayırbağı in the southwest of Konya, is generally well-bedded and the layer thicknesses are between 10 cm and 2 cm. The layer surfaces are quite clean and smooth. Due to it was deposited in a shallow lake environment, it gained a porous and hollow structure as a result of decay. Ulumuhsine limestone, which was examined petrographically, is in demand in the market in terms of color, pattern and texture harmony. To determine the physical and mechanical properties of the lacustrine limestones of Ulumuhsine formation (Gödene taşı), in accordance with TS 699 standards, unit weight, porosity, void ratio, water absorption by weight and weight loss after frost, uniaxial compressive strength, bending strenght, impact strenght, Böhme abrasion resistance tests were carried out. As a result of the experiments carried out according to TS 699 and TS 11143 standards, it was concluded that the Miocene aged carbonate rocks in the south of Konya can be used as building and covering stones, but they should be preferred more in pavement due to the low impact strenght and Böhme abrasion resistance test values. Approximately 4.000.000 m3 of producible limestone reserves were calculated in the region.

Published: June 2022

In the context of global changes in education in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, the number and capabilities of distance technology, the availability of the Internet worldwide raises the importance of the issue of studying the use of distance technology in education, including foreign language learning. The paper finds that the distance learning process is carried out using a combination of synchronous and asynchronous tools, while maintaining flexibility and convenience and expanding the quality and efficiency of both methods of communication. The most effective forms of organizing foreign language classes with the use of distance technologies have been identified. Factors that should be taken into account when working with distance technologies in the process of learning a foreign language are identified: interface, the ability to present a variety of materials, including audio and video, presentations and links to useful Internet resources, automatic calculation of response statistics and activity monitoring. A brief description of some techniques and methods of teaching English remotely is given, their specificity is analyzed. The author also presents the main disadvantages and advantages of using distance technologies by teachers in the process of learning foreign languages, as well as outlines the prospects for their further effective use. It is emphasized that the advantages of distance learning technologies, such as the availability of materials, their ease of usage and the ability to manage the learning process are undeniable. It is stated that there are three main principles on which the distance education system is based: learn from native speakers, learn from authentic material, learn for free. The author also emphasizes that teacher’s feedback is an important factor in distance learning. It was found that a well-organized educational process using distance technologies can make learning a foreign language more effective and attractive to all motivated and modern people, regardless of their age, location and financial capabilities.

Published: June 2022

The article presents the results of scientific analysis of the concept of pre-professional training as a system of psychological, pedagogical, informational and organizational activities in primary school, which is designed to fully ensure the realization of interests, inclinations and abilities of students. It is established that pre-professional training is the basis for choosing the profile (future profession) and place of study, creates prerequisites for life and professional self-determination, realization of personal potential, and is the key to successful reform of senior specialized school. The importance of cross-cutting career guidance at all levels of the educational process is emphasized not only by psychologists and class teachers, but also by teachers of biology and basics of health, in the study of higher nervous activity in particular (section "Mental and spiritual component of health" in 8th and 9th grades). The professional inclinations and monitoring of the formation of professional interests of 8th grade students of Zhytomyr City Lyceum № 1 of Zhytomyr City Council was carried out with the help of differential diagnostic questionnaire designed by E. Klimov, methods of diagnosing the professional orientation developed by B. Bass as well as the author's questionnaire for students. It is identified that one third of 8th grade lyceum students are motivated to acquire a future profession, as well as professional development and improvement; the vast majority of students decided on the future profile of study; however, the lack of a unified focus of professional interests and the diversity of professional types of students, especially in groups of future mathematical studies, had its impact on overall statistical results.

The practical experience of organizing pre-professional training in the educational environment of the lyceum is generalized. The method of conducting research training in biology is described, which contributes to the knowledge of one's own temperament and the ratio of one's abilities, aptitudes with further education and future profession.
STATE OF FORMATION OF ORGANIZATIONAL COMPETENCE IN FUTURE SPECIALISTS IN PHYSICAL EDUCATION AND SPORT OF THE ARMED FORCES OF UKRAINE
Authors: Bielikov І.
Published: June 2022

The paper is devoted to the coverage of the results of the summative stage of the pedagogical experiment on the formation of organizational competence of future professionals in physical culture and sports of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (hereinafter "the AFU"). An algorithm is presented for determining the levels of formedness of their organizational competence according to a number of criteria: value-motivational, cognitive, activity, managerial, individual-mental and subject and their corresponding components of the phenomenon under study. The application of these criteria and their indicators made it possible to determine the levels of formedness of organizational competence of the subjects (low, medium, high). The study was conducted with cadets of the Educational and Scientific Institute of Physical Culture and Sports and Health Technologies of the National Ivan Cherniakhovskyi University of Defense of Ukraine.

In the 1st academic year, the high level of formedness of organizational competence was identified as following: high - 1.66%, medium – 15%, low – 83.33% and, accordingly, in the 2nd academic year, the high level of formation was: high 5.55%, medium – 22.22%, low – 72.22%; in the 3rd academic year, the high level was at 4.55%, medium – 19.69%, low – 75.75%; in the 4th academic year, the high level was at 5.12%, medium – 21.8%, low – 73.07%.

These input data allow drawing a conclusion that the coefficients for each component have a low level of formedness of the organizational competence of future professionals in physical culture and sports, namely: value-motivational – 1.53, cognitive – 1.13, activity – 1.35, managerial – 1, individual-mental – 1.44 and subject – 1.13. The greatest difficulties occurred at the stage of diagnosing managerial, cognitive and subject components. The vast majority of respondents could not reach even a low level of formedness on these components. The results of the summative stage of the pedagogical experiment showed a low level of formedness of the organizational competence of future professionals in physical culture and sports, namely, the coefficient of formedness was 1.23. This made it possible, on the one hand, to establish the conditions that affect its formation, and on the other hand, to emphasize the need to introduce additional pedagogical conditions for its formation at the formative stage of the experiment.
Groundwater Quality Assessment Using Groundwater Quality Index and Multivariate Statistical Methods and Human Health Risk Assessment in
a Coastal Region of the Vietnamese Mekong Delta
Authors: Thanh Giao Nguyen , Kim Anh Phan , Thi Hong Nhien Huynh
Published: June 2022

This study aimed to evaluate the suitability of groundwater for drinking purposes and assess the associated human health risks for different age groups in a coastal province of Mekong Delta, Vietnam. Twenty groundwater samples were collected in Soc Trang Province, and various water quality parameters were analyzed. The data were employed to calculate entropy-weighted groundwater quality index (EWQI), principal component analysis (PCA), cluster analysis (CA), and non-carcinogenic and carcinogenic risks for adult and children health. The results revealed that groundwater in some locations, especially in GW19, was polluted by hardness, total dissolved solids, NH4+, Cl-, Fe, total coliform, and E. coli. In addition, 5 principal components from the PCA results could explain 84.5% of the total variation of groundwater quality, which also suggested that the potential groundwater pollution sources were geochemical processes, agricultural activities, domestic and industrial wastewater, seawater intrusion, and excessive nitrogen fertilizer application. The CA results showed that monitoring locations can be divided into 4 clusters based on their similarities in groundwater quality, and the most polluted group was found at cluster IV (GW19). The computed EWQI values ranged from 20.05 to 738.52, with approximately 45% of total samples classifying good to excellent water quality. The sampling points with undrinkable quality are mainly located in the northeast and center of the province. The ratio of children and adults under the threat of adverse health effects due to drinking groundwater contained non-carcinogenic substances (NH4+, NO2-, NO3-, Cd, Cu, F-, Mn, and As) ranged from 5 to 40%, and children had higher risks compared to adults. Additionally, the consumption of As-contaminated groundwater also poses carcinogenic risks for children, female and male adults ranging from 4.80×10-6 to 1.33×10-4. The findings of this study can provide helpful information for policymakers in the development of long-term water management strategies to protect community health.
The Real Tragedy of the Commons – Garrett Hardin (1968) Revised
Authors: Brunnhuber Stefan
Published: June 2022

Garrett Hardin’s seminal 1968 paper describes the tragedy of the commons in terms of common goods being neglected or overused. His theory has been widely adopted. However, it refers only to a special case, when inadequate public goods have to compete with the maximisation of private yield. The real tragedy of the commons is not that it is overused or neglected, nor is it any free-rider and spillover effects it gives rise to, but rather the underlying financial incentives and disincentives that prevent an adequate supply. Consequently, the misalignment between our current monetary system and the global commons has led to the latter’s erosion and partial destruction. Introducing a new monetary and fiscal policy of strategic triangulation can provide an adequate tool to finance our commons. With their ongoing central bank digital currency (CBDC) initiatives, regulators and central banks can offer a direct monetary mechanism to overcome this tragedy of the commons.

The pandemic has clearly demonstrated the global interdependence of states and contributed to the formation of new trends that have changed the image of traditional logistics.  Modern logistics, being in a state of transition, has faced not only short-term challenges such as COVID-19, but also long-term problems ranging from structural shifts in production and marketing processes and globalization patterns, and ending with changes in consumption patterns and resource spending, as well as a broad global agenda in the field of sustainable development.  In this regard, there is a need to develop theoretical and applied aspects of the transition of logistics to sustainable development under the influence of COVID-19.  The theoretical basis was the scientific works of domestic and foreign authors in the field of logistics, sustainable development, certain provisions of international framework documents.  The initial information for analysis, forecasting and drawing conclusions was the official data of the Statistical office of the European Union (Eurostat), the State Statistics Service of Ukraine (Goskomstat), International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), International Transport Forum (ITF), United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD).  As a result of the generalization of the theoretical and methodological foundations of logistics, the article proposes the author’s definition of sustainable logistics, which made it possible to expand the scientific vision of its content, taking into account modern challenges, as well as to identify its role in ensuring sustainable development.  An analysis was made of the development of transport logistics before and during the pandemic.  A forecast of freight turnover by type of transport for 2022 has been built. The main trends in the transition of logistics to sustainable development under the influence of COVID-19 are identified.

Sustainable development goal 17 emphasizes the importance of international trade in achieving inclusive growth. Likewise, countries with high level of corruption will experience limited growth. In order to examine the causality, this study considers the impact of international trade and corruption on the economic growth of selected sub-Saharan African countries (Angola, Ghana, Kenya, Nigeria, and South Africa) from the period 2000-2019. The granger causality test and fixed effect method of estimation were adopted. The result of the granger causality tests shows that there is no causality between import and economic growth, there is unidirectional causality between export and economic growth and there is no causality between control of corruption and economic growth. Furthermore, it was discovered that export, import, and control of corruption have a positive impact, 25.4%, 32%, 45.5% respectively, on the economic growth of selected sub-Saharan African countries. Hence from these findings, policies towards export promotion should be encouraged as export is crucial for the economic growth of these countries and policies to curb corruption should be implemented in order to promote economic growth in the selected sub-Saharan African countries.

Particular attention was paid to the situation in international tourism in those countries that integrated with the EU in 2004 and 2007. In addition, the article discusses the main modern types of international tourism, as well as factors affecting its development. Finally, attention was also paid to identifying promising directions for the development of international tourism in Eastern European countries – potential candidates for accession to the EU (Republic of Moldova and Ukraine).
Arsenic Contamination of Groundwater in Bhojpur District of Bihar, India: A Threat to Sustainability
Authors: Ranjan Avinash , Kumari Pammy
Published: June 2022

Arsenic contamination of water is now a global problem. More than 100 countries, including India, are facing a high level of arsenic in the groundwater. There is a wide range of negative impacts of arsenic contamination on society and the economy, threatening sustainability in the contaminated areas. To examine the magnitude and effects of arsenic in the Shahpur block of the Bhojpur district, Bihar, India, we tested groundwater samples from many different locations. The household survey and personal interviews were conducted to find out the societal response to this problem. Sample testing results confirm that there is a high rate of arsenic contamination in the area. Our study found that; low education level of the area is hampering the sustainable solution of the problem. We came to know that people who are suffering from arsenic diseases are discriminated against the society. Further, we have also found that the economic burdens of arsenic contamination are more on the marginalized section of the community. Since crops are irrigated with high arsenic concentrated water, soil quality is degrading, responsible for poor agriculture output and economic loss. It has also been found that most of the mitigation measures employed are not sustainable in the long term. Awareness regarding arsenic toxicity is needed for the sustainable intervention of this problem. After examining all the mitigation measures, we concluded that rainwater harvesting and rooftop rain harvesting is the most sustainable and cost-effective measure to tackle this menace.
How Humble Leadership Affects Voluntary Green Behavior and Green Performance? The Roles of Job Autonomy and Green Supporting Climate in Hotels

Published: June 2022

The relationship between the humble behavior of leaders and the voluntary workplace green behaviors (VWGB) of their employees is critical to affecting the overall green performance of an organization, particularly in the situation of COVID-19 pandemic. Traditionally, most studies focus more on the importance of leadership effectiveness, but few research studies investigate the leadership approach and its psychological mechanisms that motivate voluntary positive behavior and the efficiency of the overall performance. Thus, the authors conceptualize a research model of humble leadership that investigates the impact of humble leadership on voluntary green behavior and green performance via job autonomy and the green supporting climate. To verify the research hypotheses, 692 online and in-person questionnaires were analyzed using Smartpls-SEM. The results showed a positive association between humble leadership and green performance, and VWGB mediates this relationship. In addition, job autonomy and green supporting climate were confirmed to mediate the association of humble leadership and VWGB; and moderate the relationship of VWGB and green performance, respectively. Notably, this study is one of the few studies in the hotel sector that look at green performance through the lens of humble leadership and VWGB.
Storytelling for Behavior Change: Use of Folktales for Promoting Sustainable Behaviors
Authors: Mitra Soumita , Sameer Ahmed
Published: June 2022

Our Earth has been entangled in different adverse effects resulting from the excessive human interference into the territory of nature. The habit of extracting and consuming indiscriminately is moving them to a situation, where their own future generation would not be able receive benefits of the natural resources. It has also been recognized that human action is perhaps the most significant contributor to this. And therefore, a proper equilibrium, i.e., sustainable development, could only be achieved by bringing about a change in human behavior in general. We explore the possibility of using indigenous knowledge for encouraging sustainable behaviors. We propose a model for behavior change through storytelling by using folktales. We argue that folktales serve three functions – epistemic, motivational, and ethical – which make them potent tools for promoting sustainable behavior. We conclude by pointing out limitations and suggestion for future research.
Analyzing the effects of pad asperity on chemical mechanical polishing of copper thin film wafer
Authors: Quoc Huy Le Nam , Lin Chun-Yu , Chen Chao-Chang A
Published: June 2022

Copper thin film has been identified as a promising material for multi-level interconnecting materials in IC fabrication due to its unique electrical properties and high electrical conductivity. However, it is very challenging to manufacture a superior planar surface with low dishing and minimal erosion of copper thin film in the chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) process. In this study, the micro-topography model of a soft polishing pad is performed using an X-ray micro-computed tomography scan combined with finite element method simulation to evaluate the contact area between the CMP pad and wafer during the CMP process. Additionally, the material removal rate (MRR) model for the copper wafer is calibrated based on the wear of the material between abrasive particles and the wafer surface. The results of this study not only investigate the effect of CMP pad asperities during the CMP process but also provide a new method for fully calibrating MRR in comparison with CMP experiments for the verification of model parameters.
