    摘要: A method for planarization of a semiconductor wafer with a high selectivity is describe. The semiconductor wafer has a hard mask, a stop layer disposed on the hard mask, and a barrier layer disposed on the stop layer. The method includes performing a chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) process on the barrier layer so as to expose the stop layer, and removing the stop layer. The polishing selectivity of the barrier layer relative to the stop layer is greater than 50. Since the material of stop layer is different from the material of barrier layer, the high selectivity is easily achieved. Thus, the surface of semiconductor wafer can be highly planarized.

    摘要: A first substrate and second substrate both having thereon a top bulk metal layer and a lower barrier layer are prepared. The first substrate is first loaded onto a first platen of a CMP tool, and then an upper portion of the top bulk metal layer of the first substrate is removed by first platen and first slurry. The first substrate is then transferred to a second platen having second slurry. The second substrate is loaded onto the first platen. Simultaneously, the remaining top bulk metal layer of the first substrate and an upper portion of top bulk metal layer of the second substrate are removed at substantially the same copper removal rate until the lower barrier layer of the first substrate is exposed. The first substrate is transferred to a third platen having third slurry for polishing the exposed barrier layer.

    摘要: A semiconductor process includes the following steps. A first gate structure and a second gate structure are formed on a substrate, wherein the top of the first gate structure includes a cap layer, so that the vertical height of the first gate structure is higher than the vertical height of the second gate structure. An interdielectric layer is formed on the substrate. A first chemical mechanical polishing process is performed to expose the top surface of the cap layer. A second chemical mechanical polishing process is performed to expose the top surface of the second gate structure or an etching process is performed to remove the interdielectric layer located on the second gate structure. A second chemical mechanical polishing process is then performed to remove the cap layer.

    摘要: A method for cleaning a surface is disclosed. First, a substrate including Cu and a barrier layer is provided. Second, a first chemical mechanical polishing procedure is performed on the substrate. Then, a second chemical mechanical polishing procedure is performed on the barrier layer. The second chemical mechanical polishing procedure includes performing a main chemical mechanical polishing procedure to partially remove the barrier layer and performing a chemical buffing procedure on the substrate using a chemical solution which has a pH value of about 6 to about 8 to remove residues on the substrate after the main chemical mechanical polishing procedure. Later, a water rinsing procedure is performed on the substrate. Afterwards, a post clean procedure is performed on the substrate after the second chemical mechanical polishing procedure.
