Abstract

A method for chemical mechanical polishing of a substrate comprising a barrier material in the presence of at least one of an interconnect metal and a low-k dielectric material using a chemical mechanical polishing composition comprising water; 1 to 40 wt % abrasive having an average particle size of ≦100 nm; 0.001 to 5 wt % quaternary compound; a material having a formula (I):wherein R is selected from C2-C20 alkyl, C2-C20 aryl, C2-C20 aralkyl and C2-C20 alkaryl; wherein x is an integer from 0 to 20; wherein y is an integer from 0 to 20; wherein x+y≧1; and, wherein the chemical mechanical polishing composition has a pH≦5.
