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 13):
The method of  claim 11  wherein between about 0.1 um and about 0.5 um of the thickness of the silicon layer is removed while the silicon layer is polished on the second wafer polishing apparatus.
