Abstract

By using a polishing slurry which contains, at least, a polishing grain, an oxidizing agent and a basic amino acid compound, it is possible to suppress dishing and erosion liable to be produced in chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) for a copper-based metal film when forming a buried interconnection of a copper-based metal on a barrier metal film of a tantalum-based metal.
