Abstract

A slurry composition for chemical mechanical polishing, including 0.1% to 20% by weight of an aminosilane-surface treated polishing agent; 0.001% to 5% by weight of an additive selected from amino acids, amino acid derivatives, salts thereof, and combinations thereof; 0.0001% to 0.5% by weight of a corrosion inhibitor; and 0.01% to 5% by weight of an oxidizing agent, with the balance being a solvent, is provided. The slurry composition for chemical mechanical polishing has a conspicuously high polishing rate for silicon oxide films, is capable of selectively preventing the removal of silicon nitride films, does not cause an imbalance in polishing, gives an excellent degree of planarization, has excellent stability over time and dispersion stability, causes less generation of particles and scratches, and produces very satisfactory polished surfaces of barrier metal films and oxide films.
