  • Patent number: 8492276
    Abstract: A chemical mechanical polishing aqueous dispersion is used to polish a polishing target that includes an interconnect layer that contains tungsten. The chemical mechanical polishing aqueous dispersion includes: (A) a cationic water-soluble polymer; (B) an iron (III) compound; and (C) colloidal silica particles. The content (MA) (mass %) of the cationic water-soluble polymer (A) and the content (MB) (mass %) of the iron (III) compound (B) satisfy the relationship “MA/MB=0.004 to 0.1”. The chemical mechanical polishing aqueous dispersion has a pH of 1 to 3.

  • Publication number: 20090325323
    Abstract: There is provided an aqueous dispersion for chemical mechanical polishing that comprises abrasives comprising: (A) 100 parts by weight of inorganic particles comprising ceria, (B) 5 to 100 parts by weight of cationic organic polymer particles, and (C) 5 to 120 parts by weight of anionic water-soluble compound. The aqueous dispersion for chemical mechanical polishing is preferably produced by a method comprising a step of adding a second liquid comprising (C) 5 to 30 wt % of anionic water-soluble compound to a first liquid comprising (A) 0.1 to 10 wt % of inorganic particles comprising ceria and (B) 5 to 100 parts by weight of cationic organic polymer particles based on 100 parts by weight of the inorganic particles (A).
