Prior technology: [Background of the invention] The chemical mechanical polishing method can provide a solution for comprehensive planarization of the surface of semiconductor semiconductor wafers. With the increase of the ultra-large integrated circuit (ULSI) accumulation degree and the complexity of the process, it is often necessary An insulating layer such as silicon dioxide and a metal layer such as tungsten or copper are formed on the surface of the semiconductor wafer to form a multiple inner conductor structure to improve the electrical performance of the integrated circuit element.
