Abstract

This invention pertains to slurries, methods and systems that can be used in chemical mechanical planarization (CMP) of tungsten containing semiconductor device. Using the CMP slurries with additives to counter lowering of pH by tungsten polishing byproducts and maintain pH 4 or higher, the erosion of dense metal (such as tungsten) structures can be greatly diminished.
