Abstract

Described are compositions (e.g., slurries) useful in methods for chemical-mechanical processing (e.g. polishing or planarizing) a surface of a substrate that contains tungsten, the slurries containing abrasive particles, metal cation catalyst, phosphorus-containing zwitterionic compound, and optional ingredients such as oxidizer; also described are methods and substrates used or processed on combination with the compositions.
