ABSTRACT:
A method of making a semiconductor structure includes determining a polish time which is sufficient to planarize a layer on a semiconductor substrate. The layer is polished for the polish time to planarize the layer, and then the layer is polished to a predetermined thickness. The semiconductor structures can be used to make a semiconductor device.
