Abstract:
The invention provides a chemical-mechanical polishing composition comprising (a) an abrasive, (b) a cobalt accelerator, and (c) an oxidizing agent that oxidizes a metal, wherein the polishing composition has a pH of about 4 to about 10. The invention further provides a method of chemically-mechanically polishing a substrate with the inventive chemical-mechanical polishing composition. Typically, the substrate contains cobalt.
