Abstract:
Provided are a polishing method and a polishing composition that are applied to polishing of silicon carbide and allows reduction of rise in pH of the polishing composition and increase in pad temperature during polishing Provided is a method of polishing an object to be polished having a surface formed of silicon carbide. The method includes steps of preparing a polishing composition, and supplying the polishing composition to the object to be polished and polishing the object to be polished. The polishing composition contains permanganate, a metal salt A, and water. The metal salt A is a salt of a metal cation having a pKa of less than 7.0 in form of a hydrated metal ion, and an anion.
Abstract:
A polishing composition contains: silicon dioxide having an average primary particle diameter of 40 nm or more as calculated from the specific surface area determined by the BET method; a nitrogen-containing water-soluble polymer; and a basic compound. The value of B/A is 1 or more and less than 7,000 and the value of C/A is 5,000 or more and less than 1,500,000 when in one liter of the polishing composition, A is defined as the number of silicon dioxide, B is defined as the number of monomer units of the nitrogen-containing water-soluble polymer, and C is defined as the number of molecules of the basic compound. Alternatively, the value of B/A is 1 or more and less than 7,000 and the value of C/A is 5,000 or more and less than 100,000. The polishing composition is used, for example, for polishing a semiconductor substrate.

Abstract:
According to the present invention, there is provided a polishing composition used for polishing a gallium compound-based semiconductor substrate. The polishing composition includes a silica abrasive; a compound Cpho having a phosphoric acid group or a phosphonic acid group; and water. In addition, according to the present invention, there is provided a method for polishing a gallium compound-based semiconductor substrate. The method includes a first polishing step in which polishing is performed using a slurry S1 containing an abrasive A1 and water; and a second polishing step in which polishing is performed using a slurry S2 containing an abrasive A2 and water, in this order. The abrasive A2 contains a silica abrasive. The slurry S2 further contains a compound Cpho having a phosphoric acid group or a phosphonic acid group. The slurry S1 does not contain the compound Cpho or a concentration [% by weight] of the compound Cpho in the slurry S1 is lower than a concentration [% by weight] of the compound Cpho in the slurry S2.
