摘要:
The present invention provides a chemical-mechanical polishing (CMP) composition suitable for polishing a substrate comprising a phase change alloy (PCA), such as a germanium-antimony-tellurium (GST) alloy. The composition comprises not more than about 6 percent by weight of a particulate abrasive material in combination with an optional oxidizing agent, at least one chelating agent, and an aqueous carrier therefor. The chelating agent comprises a compound or combination of compounds capable of chelating a phase change alloy or component thereof (e.g., germanium, indium, antimony and/or tellurium species) that is present in the substrate, or chelating a substance that is formed from the PCA during polishing of the substrate with the CMP composition. A CMP method for polishing a phase change alloy-containing substrate utilizing the composition is also disclosed.

摘要:
A chromium- and nitrogen-free brightening and passivating treatment for metal surfaces, particularly iron and steel, comprises: at least one acid; at least one substance containing a peroxy moiety; and at least one organic substance selected from the group consisting of: molecules that contain both at least one ether moiety and at least one hydroxyl moiety; molecules that contain at least two ether moieties; and molecules that contain in each molecule both at least one ether moiety and one nitrogen atom that is covalently bonded to at least three carbon atoms. Preferably part of the acid contains phosphorus, which has been found to act synergistically with the organic substance to stabilize peroxy compounds against decomposition, particularly in the presence of metal ions.
