Abstract
A method for CMP polishing with a first step slurry composition selective to a metal in a metal layer to remove the metal at a high removal rate during polishing, and a second step slurry composition selective to a barrier film and least selective to either of an underlying dielectric layer or a metal interconnection structure in the dielectric layer, to remove the barrier film at a high removal rate during polishing, and level a surface of the dielectric layer to the surface of the interconnection structure.
