A scheme for filling plugs through chemical mechanical polishing comprises depositing a malleable conductive layer over a dielectric layer having openings formed therein. The malleable conductive layer is deposited such that a liner is formed within the openings, however the openings are not completely filled. A chemical mechanical polishing process using an alumina based slurry at a neutral or slightly basic pH and no oxidizer is used to smear the malleable conductive layer sufficiently to fill the remainder of the openings in the dielectric layer forming filled or substantially filled plugs.
