Abstract: There is provided a method of planarizing an interlayer insulating
film in the formation of a semiconductor device, including the steps of forming
an interlayer insulating film, and polishing the interlayer insulating film,
characterized by the steps of (a) forming interlayer insulating films (17, 18; 27, 28)
by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) over a semiconductor substrate (1) on which
a wiring (6) has been already formed, and (b) polishing the interlayer insulating
films (17, 18; 27, 28) by chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) to planarize them.
The method eliminates a gentle step which would remain not removed in high
density line area in a conventional method, and can planarize an interlayer
insulating layer without changing conditions for CMP. The method also makes
it possible to planarize an interlayer insulating film in about half of time relative
to a conventional method.

Abstract: The present invention provides an air permeable, substantially liquid impermeable
barrier structure and products made therefrom, such as sanitary napkins,
pantiliners, incontinence products and diapers. The barrier structure has a porous
layer having opposing sides, the porous layer having: a porous substrate having
pores, which extend between the opposing sides that correspond to the opposing
sides of the porous layer, whereby a liquid may transverse the substrate; and
particles that are fused to at least one side of the porous substrate so as to restrict
entry of the liquid into the pores; wherein the porous layer resists penetration by
the liquid when it is contained in an absorbent structure that overlays the side of
the porous layer to which the particles are fused, and is under a loading of one
pound per square inch; and wherein the porous layer has a Frazier air permeability
value in the range of greater than zero to about 80 mm 3 /ft 2 /min (861 mm 3 /m 2 /min).
The air permeable, substantially liquid impermeable barrier structure is
distinguished by having the particles that are fused to the porous substrate being
predominantly on the surface of the porous substrate rather than being admixed
with and penetrating the depth of the materials that comprise the porous substrate.
