Chemical mechanical planarization compositions for reducing erosion in semiconductor wafers

摘要

An aqueous chemical mechanical planarizing composition includes an oxidizer for promoting barrier removal and an abrasive. Inhibitor decreases removals of a metal interconnect. The composition has a carboxylic acid polymer having at least one repeat unit of the polymer comprising at least two carboxylic acid functionalities, a pH of less than or equal to 4 and a tantalum nitride removal rate of at least eighty percent of copper removal rate at a pad pressure of 13.8 kPa.
