The selectivity of chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) is successfully enhanced due to the modification of the film surface by ultra-high-dose ion implantation for the first time. The removal rate (RR) of CMP for SiO2 and Si3N4 films was changed by implanted ions. On the other hand, polycrystalline silicon (poly-Si) films had no change regardless of ion implantation. When C + is implanted at 3×10 16 ions/cm 2 into SiO2, the RR decreases by about 40% compared with that without implantation. However, no significant change was observed after the implantation of C + at 1×10 16 ions/cm 2 or Si + to SiO2 and poly-Si films. New findings about CMP mechanism that are against Borst's Langmuir-Hinshelwood model have been made when the film is modified by using high-dose implantation.
