1. A method of detecting a delamination defect in a chemical mechanical planarization process, the method comprising the steps of:

  • sampling acoustic emission signals of the chemical mechanical planarization process, the acoustic emission signals associated with at least one preselected frequency or preselected frequency band; and

    performing wavelet based multiresolution analysis of the sampled acoustic emission signals to detect a delamination defect in the chemical mechanical planarization process.
