  • Patent number: 7857985
    Abstract: The invention provides a metal polishing liquid comprising an oxidizing agent and colloidal silica in which a part of a surface of the colloidal silica is covered with aluminum atoms, and a Chemical Mechanical Polishing method using the same. An amino acid, a compound having an isothiazoline-3-one skeleton, an organic acid, a passivated film forming agent, a cationic surfactant, a nonionic surfactant, and a water-soluble polymer may be contained. A metal polishing liquid which is used in Chemical Mechanical Polishing in manufacturing of a semiconductor device, attains low dishing of a subject to be polished, and can perform polishing excellent in in-plane uniformity of a surface to be polished.
