Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide a method wherein a cBN substrate used for a semiconductor substrate, etc., is polished with high smoothness. CONSTITUTION:A polishing material or a polishing disc is formed of an oxygen containing material (SiO2, Al2O3, ZrO2, CaO, CrO3, and MgO) to effect polishing. Probably, oxygen in the polishing material and the polishing disc is reacted with boron and nitrogen in cBN to produce B2O3 and NOx, which are removed, resulting in execution of mechanochemical polishing to produce a smooth polishing surface.

The one using a metal polishing plate containing r is so-called mechanochemical polishing which has a chemical effect in addition to a mechanical effect, and is improved as compared with the case of using a diamond grindstone. However, the surface roughness of the polished substrate is still Rma
When x is about 20 nm, there is a problem that the surface roughness is too large for use as a semiconductor substrate, for example.

Actually, the cBN substrate was polished by the method of the present invention.
As the test method, the polishing disk shown in Table 1 was attached to an aerostatic bearing, and in some examples, polishing was performed using the abrasives shown in the table. In addition, as a comparative example, polishing was performed without using an abrasive material on a polishing machine of Cr-containing SK-5 and diamond grindstone. Then, the surface roughness of the obtained substrate was measured.
