Abstract

Disclosed herein is a chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) method for manufacturing a semiconductor device, comprising performing partial ion implantation of dopants at different concentrations into a plurality of at least two divided regions of a wafer having a planarization-target film, and subjecting the partially ion implanted-wafer to a chemical mechanical polishing process. In accordance with the present invention, non-uniformity of the removal rate in a chemical mechanical polishing process is countervailed by dopants which are implanted at different concentrations via partial ion implantation, and thereby it is possible to polish the target film at a uniform removal rate.
