Description of the Related Art In recent years, microfabrication techniques have been developed for high integration and high performance of LSIs, and IC patterns are formed over multiple layers. It is inevitable that a certain degree of unevenness occurs on the surface of the layer on which the pattern is formed. Conventionally, the pattern of the next layer has been formed as it is. However, when the number of layers increases and the width of a line or hole decreases, it is difficult to form a good pattern, and defects and the like are likely to occur. Therefore, after the surface of a layer on which a pattern is formed is polished to flatten the surface, a pattern of the next layer is formed. In order to form a metal layer that connects the layers, it is also necessary to form a metal layer by plating after forming a hole, and to polish and remove the surface metal layer to leave the metal layer in the hole. Have been done. Wafer polishing by a CMP method is used to polish a wafer during the process of forming such an IC pattern.

研磨を行う。When a metal layer, for example, a Cu layer, is formed on a wafer, if the metal layer is formed directly on silicon, which is a wafer material, the metal may enter the silicon. Therefore, to prevent this diffusion, as shown in FIG. 2, the wafer 1 (silicon) and the barrier metal layer 3 between the metal layer 2, for example, titanium nitride (T i N) or tantalum nitride (T A N) and the like. FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating an example of processing by a CMP method in an IC manufacturing process.
This shows a process of polishing the surface so that only the metal layer 2 in the hole remains. In this case, polishing is performed until the entire surface metal layer 2 is removed (FIG. 2B), and then polishing is performed until the surface barrier metal layer 3 is removed (FIG. 2C).

回路として不良品となる。However, since the metal layer 2 and the barrier metal layer 3 have different polishing characteristics, it is necessary to change the abrasive (slurry) in each polishing process.
Therefore, the wafer whose metal layer 2 has been polished is moved to another polishing table, and the barrier metal layer 3 is polished on the polishing table using another polishing agent suitable for polishing the barrier metal layer. ing. Further, if polishing continues even after the surface metal layer is removed, the degree of polishing differs between the metal layer 2 and the barrier metal layer 3 by about 5 to 6 times, and the barrier metal layer is difficult to polish. As shown in FIG. 2, a polishing agent causes a shingle 4 in which the metal layer in the hole is eroded. When this reshing 4 occurs, the resistance value changes,
It becomes a defective product as a circuit.
