Abstract

A polishing composition used in an application to polish silicon nitride is characterized by containing colloidal silica in which an organic acid, such as a sulfonic acid or a carboxylic acid, is immobilized, and having a pH of 6 or less.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A polishing composition used in an application to polish silicon nitride, comprising colloidal silica in which an organic acid is immobilized, wherein the polishing composition has a pH of 6 or less. 
     
     
         2 . The polishing composition according to  claim 1 , wherein the polishing composition has a ratio of the rate of polishing silicon nitride to the rate of polishing polycrystalline silicon of 2 or more. 
     
     
         3 . The polishing composition according to  claim 1 , wherein the colloidal silica in which an organic acid is immobilized is colloidal silica in which a sulfonic acid is immobilized, and the colloidal silica in which a sulfonic acid is immobilized is obtained by coupling a silane coupling agent having a thiol group to colloidal silica, followed by oxidizing the thiol group. 
     
     
         4 . The polishing composition according to  claim 1 , wherein the colloidal silica in which an organic acid is immobilized is colloidal silica in which a carboxylic acid is immobilized, and the colloidal silica in which a carboxylic acid is immobilized is obtained by coupling a silane coupling agent including photoreactive 2-nitrobenzyl ester to colloidal silica, followed by photoirradiation. 
     
     
         5 . A polishing method for polishing silicon nitride using the polishing composition according to  claim 1 .
