Abstract
A polishing composition comprising an improver of a ratio of a polishing rate of an insulating film to that of a stopper film, wherein the polishing rate of the stopper film is selectively decreased, comprising one or more compounds selected from the group consisting of a monoamine or diamine compound; a polyamine having three or more amino groups in its molecule; an ether group-containing amine; and a heterocyclic compound having nitrogen atom. The polishing composition can be used for removing an insulating film which has been embedded for isolation into a trench formed on a silicon substrate and sedimented outside the trench, thereby planing a surface of the silicon substrate.
Claims4
A polishing composition comprising an abrasive, a pH adjusting agent, an improver of a selective ratio, and water, wherein the abrasive is contained in an amount of from 0.5 to 30% by weight, the pH adjusting agent is contained in an amount of from 0.01 to 3% by weight, the improver of a selective ratio is contained in an amount of 0.3 to 30% by weight, and water is contained in an amount of 45 to 99.49% by weight, wherein the weight % is based on the weight of the polishing composition, and wherein the improver is one or more compounds selected from the group consisting of methylamine, ethylamine, propylamine, isopropylamine, dimethylamine, diethylamine, dipropylamine, diisopropylamine, ethylenediamine, 1,2-diaminopropane, 1,3-propanediamine, 1,4-butanediamine, hexamethylenediamine, N,N,N′,N′-tetramethyl-1,6-diaminohexane, 6-(dimethylamino)-1-hexanol, bis(3-aminopropyl)amine, triethylenetetraamine, diethylene glycol bis(3-aminopropyl) ether, piperazine, and piperidine.
