Abstract

See full text

In methods of forming a phase-change material layer pattern, an insulation layer having a recessed portion may be formed on a substrate, and a phase-change material layer may be formed on the insulation layer to fill the recessed portion. A first polishing process may be performed on the phase-change material layer using a first slurry composition to partially remove the phase-change material layer, the first slurry composition having a first polishing selectivity between the insulation layer and the phase-change material layer. A second polishing process may be performed on the phase-change material layer using a second slurry composition to form a phase-change material layer pattern in the recessed portion, the second slurry composition having a second polishing selectivity substantially lower than the first polishing selectivity.
