Abstract An anti-scattering layer for polishing pad windows as used in chemical-mechanical planarization (CMP) systems is disclosed. The invention finds particular use in circumstances where the windows have a roughened lower surface. The anti-scattering layer is formed over the roughened lower surface of the window in a manner that significantly reduces light scattering while making optical in-situ measurements of a wafer undergoing a CMP process. The reduced light scattering results in an increased signal strength, which makes for more robust optical in-situ measurement capability.
