Abstract

Provided are a multi-selective polishing slurry composition and a semiconductor element production method using the same. A silicon film provided with element patterns is formed on the uppermost part of a substrate having a first region and a second region. The element pattern density on the first region is higher than the element pattern density on the second region. Formed in sequence on top of the element patterns are a first silicon oxide film, a silicon nitride film and a second silicon oxide film. The substrate is subjected to chemical-mechanical polishing until the silicon film is exposed, by using a polishing slurry composition containing a polishing agent, a silicon nitride film passivation agent and a silicon film passivation agent. The polishing slurry composition may be a mixture of 100 parts by weight of a polishing agent suspension, containing a polishing agent, and from 40 to 120 parts by weight of an additive solution, and the additive solution can contain 100 parts by weight of a solvent, from 0.01 to 5 parts by weight of a silicon nitride film passivation agent and from 0.01 to 5 parts by weight of a silicon film passivation agent.
