| 摘要 |
The present invention provides a chemical-mechanical polishing (CMP) composition for polishing a ruthenium-containing substrate in the presence of hydrogen peroxide without forming a toxic level of ruthenium tetroxide during the polishing process. The composition comprises (a) a catalytic oxidant comprising a water-soluble peroxometalate complex, an oxidizable precursor of a peroxometalate complex, or a combination thereof, (b) a particulate abrasive; and (c) an aqueous carrier. The peroxometalate complex and the precursor thereof each have a reduced form that is oxidizable by hydrogen peroxide to regenerate the peroxometalate complex during chemical-mechanical polishing. CMP methods for polishing ruthenium-containing surfaces with the CMP composition are also provided.
