Abstract: The present disclosure provides a polishing pad and a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device using the same. The method includes disposing a target layer on a semiconductor substrate and performing a chemical mechanical polishing process on the target layer using a polishing pad including a plurality of polishing protrusions facing the target layer. Each of the polishing protrusions includes a protruding portion and a surface layer at least partially covering the protruding portion, wherein the protruding portion is more elastic than the surface layer, and wherein the surface layer is harder than the protruding portion.

Abstract: A method for fabricating a semiconductor device may comprise forming a first transistor having a first threshold voltage in a first region of a substrate, forming a second transistor having a second threshold voltage less than the first threshold voltage in a second region of the substrate, forming a third interlayer insulating film in the third region, and planarizing the first transistor, the second transistor and the third interlayer insulating film. The first transistor may include a first gate electrode having a first height and a first interlayer insulating film having the first height, and the second transistor may include a second gate electrode having a second height shorter than the first height and a second interlayer insulating film having the second height. The third interlayer insulating film may have the first height.
