Abstract

Chemical mechanical polishing of a silicon layer, such as a polycrystalline silicon, is improved by initially chemical mechanically polishing the silicon layer with an oxide-polishing slurry. Then the silicon layer is chemical mechanically polished with a silicon-polishing slurry until the substrate is planarized.
