- the magnetic information recording apparatus records information on an information recording medium by using magnetism, light, magneto-optical, and the like.
- a typical example is a hard disk drive (hereinafter referred to as HDD) device.
- Recent HDD devices are required to have a high capacity and a small diameter, and in order to increase the recording density, the flying height of the magnetic head is reduced or the unit recording area is reduced. As a result, surface quality such as surface roughness and micro waviness required after polishing in the manufacturing process of glass substrates for HDDs has become stricter year by year, and high polishing quality corresponding to low flying height of the head is required. Yes.
- Patent Document 1 describes an abrasive containing abrasive grains composed of high-purity cerium oxide having a cerium oxide content of 95% by mass or more with respect to the total rare earth oxide content in order to stabilize the polishing quality of a glass substrate for HDD. Has been.
- One aspect of the present invention is a substrate polishing agent containing cerium oxide as a main component as an abrasive component in the polishing agent, wherein the substrate polishing agent contains soluble silica and cerium oxide, and the polishing A polishing slurry for a substrate, characterized in that the concentration ratio (mass) of the soluble silica in the agent in terms of Si and cerium oxide is 0.001: 1 to 0.1: 1.

- the reason why the cerium oxide is used as a main component in the abrasive component in the abrasive is that processing characteristics are increased. This is considered to be because the polishing rate is accelerated by replacing the Si—O bond on the glass surface and the Ce—O bond of the abrasive during polishing.
- conventional abrasives have a problem of instability of polishing characteristics, particularly instability of polishing characteristics in the initial stage of use of the abrasive. Specifically, at the initial stage when the abrasive was started to be used, minute scratches and undulations at a moderate wavelength had occurred.
- the cerium oxide abrasive promotes polishing by replacing the Ce—O bond with the Si—O bond of the glass.

本実施形態に係る基板用研磨剤は、研磨剤中の研磨材成分として酸化セリウムを主成分とする基板用研磨剤であって、前記基板用研磨剤は、溶解性シリカと酸化セリウムとを含有し、前記研磨剤中の前記溶解性シリカのSi換算量と酸化セリウムとの濃度比が0.001:1~0.1:1であることを特徴とする。
本実施形態の溶解性シリカは、研磨剤中の溶媒に溶解するものであれば、特に制限されない。研磨剤の溶媒に溶解しない場合、シリカが溶媒中に固体で存在するため、酸化セリウムの主表面を取り囲むことができず、酸化セリウムの研磨速度を安定化させることができない。また、溶解していないシリカが研磨剤中に存在する場合、酸化セリウムの研磨特性へ直接的な影響はないが、被研磨物と接触し、非研磨物を削り取ることになるため傷などが増えてしまうおそれがある。
本実施形態に用いられる酸化セリウムは、通常研磨剤に用いられるものであれば、特に限定されない。また、酸化セリウムは、炭酸塩、硝酸塩、硫酸塩、しゅう酸塩等のセリウム化合物を酸化することによって得られる。酸化の方法としては、焼成又は過酸化水素等による酸化法を使用することができる。焼成の場合、焼成温度は、350~900℃が好ましい。

○:傷の数が1個/cm2以上、10個/cm2未満である。
×:傷の数が10個/cm2以上である。
実施例2~4では、表2にそれぞれ示す溶解性シリカのSi換算量と酸化セリウムの濃度比に調整した他は前記実施例1と同様にして研磨剤2~4を調製した。また、比較例1では、前記実施例1の溶解性シリカ溶液を添加しなかったこと以外は前記実施例1と同様にして研磨剤5を調製した。また、比較例2では、溶解性シリカのSi換算量と酸化セリウムとの濃度比を0.0001:1となるように調整した他は前記実施例1と同様にして研磨剤6を調整した。
実施例5では、半導体ウェハの被研磨基板としてNi-Pメッキされたアルミニウム合金基板を用いたこと以外は、前記実施例3と同様の研磨剤3、研磨方法を用いて研磨工程を行った。
