Abstract

There is described a slurry for use in chemical mechanical polishing of copper layers in integrated circuit fabrication. The slurry includes a chromate oxidant, such as sodium chromate tetrahydrate (Na.sub.2 CrO.sub.4.4H.sub.2 O). The chromate oxidant provides a slightly basic slurry solution that enhances removal characteristics for copper layers. In one embodiment, the slurry has a pH between about 6 and about 9.
