Abstract
A chemical mechanical polishing method may include polishing a polishing object at a first temperature using a chemical mechanical polishing slurry; and removing the chemical mechanical polishing slurry on the polishing object at a second temperature different from the first temperature. The chemical mechanical polishing slurry may include abrasive particles, a thermoresponsive inhibitor, and deionized water. The thermoresponsive inhibitor may include a thermoresponsive polymer exhibiting a phase-transition between the first temperature and the second temperature. The thermoresponsive polymer may be adsorbed to the hydrophobic layer at the first temperature and desorbed from the hydrophobic layer at the second temperature.
