Abstract:
A method of processing a semiconductor wafer includes depositing a silicon layer on the semiconductor wafer. A first slurry is applied to the semiconductor wafer and the silicon layer is polished to smooth the silicon layer. A second slurry is applied to the semiconductor wafer. The second slurry includes a greater amount of a caustic agent than the first slurry.

Claim (Index 15):
The method of  claim 14  further comprising applying a second slurry to the semiconductor wafer while the semiconductor wafer is on the first wafer polishing apparatus, the second slurry including a greater amount of a caustic agent than the first slurry.
