Abstract
Provided are a slurry for polishing tungsten and a method of polishing a substrate. The slurry according to an exemplary embodiment includes an abrasive configured to perform polishing and include particles having a positive zeta potential, a dispersant configure to disperse the abrasive, an oxidizer configured to oxidize a surface of the tungsten, a catalyst configured to promote oxidation of the tungsten, and a selectivity control agent configured to control a polishing selectivity and include an organic acid containing a carboxyl group. According to the slurry of the exemplary embodiment, a polishing selectivity between the tungsten and the insulation layer may be improved by suppressing a polishing rate of the insulation layer.
