A chemical-mechanical polishing process for planarizing at least one or more of thin films formed on a substrate, wherein the chemical-mechanical polishing is performed using a slurry containing abrasive particles mainly made of sialon or boehmite. This process is advantageous in improvement of a polishing rate without degradation in planarity of the processed surface and in level of metal impurities.
