To provide a metal polishing solution which enables a metal wiring unit having a width of 100 μm or above to be less dished and corroded so as to form the embedded pattern of a metal film of high reliability, and to provide a polishing method using the same.
The polishing solution contains a metallic oxidizing agent, a metal oxide dissolving agent, an agent for forming a protective film for a metal surface, and water. The polishing water solution containing no metallic oxidizing agent has conductivity of 0.5 to 5.0 mS/cm. By the use of the polishing solution, the semiconductor integrated circuit can be improved in degree of integration and throughput through both the formation of the embedded interconnect lines having excellent electrical properties and a proper polishing rate.
