Chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) compositions and single CMP platen process for the removal of copper and barrier layer material from a microelectronic device substrate having same thereon. The process includes the in situ transformation of a copper removal CMP composition, which is used to selectively remove and planarize copper, into a barrier removal CMP composition, which is used to selectively remove barrier layer material, on a single CMP platen pad. |
