A slurry composition is disclosed which includes: a corrosion inhibitor including a material selected from carbon allotropes and derivatives thereof; and an oxidant. A method of manufacturing an integrated circuit device is disclosed which includes: forming a first metal film and a second metal film on a substrate, the first metal film and the second metal film respectively including different metals; and polishing, by using the slurry composition, a polishing target surface at which the first metal film and the second metal film are exposed.

There is provided a wafer inspection device that is capable of bringing a polishing wafer into proper contact with probes without lowering throughput. The total value T of a thickness t.sub.1 of a polishing plate, a thickness t.sub.2 of a polishing wafer and a magnitude t.sub.3 extending from a lower surface of a main body of a pogo frame to a lower end of each probe of a probe card is set to be larger than a magnitude t.sub.4 of a lip seal protruding from an upper surface of a chuck top.

This invention relates to a novel application of liquid-infused surface materials (LISM) to at least a portion of one or more surfaces of razor components (e.g., frame, housing, clips, blade supports, blade body, blade edge, lubricating bodies, guard, handle, grip, button). If applied to a skin contacting surface of a component, the one or more LISM layers may generally be abrasion-resistant, long-lasting or non-erodible, desirably elevating shaving performance, such as glide, comfort, rinsing, and cleanliness, while also simplifying the manufacturing process.

A method for cleaning a jet engine includes introducing a cleaning medium having solid materials into the engine by way of at least one discharging device, wherein the cleaning medium exits from the discharging device at an exit speed of 80 m/s or less.

A composition is provided that comprises a calcium carbonate slurry. The calcium carbonate slurry comprises a plurality of calcium carbonate particles suspended in a solution, where the solution comprises a dispersant and an anionic surfactant. The concentration of the calcium carbonate particles in the calcium carbonate slurry is equal to or less than about 2.0 wt. %.

Letting a particle diameter be Dx (μm) when a cumulative particle volume cumulated from the small particle diameter side reaches x (%) of the total particle volume in a particle size distribution obtained regarding cerium oxide included in a polishing liquid using a laser diffraction/scattering method, D5 is 1 μm or less, and a difference between D95 and D5 is 3 μm or more.

Grinding a surface of a workpieces is accomplished with a grinding machine having at least two grinding units. First, a target structure of the surface to be achieved is provided. Then, using predetermined grinding parameters, a first of the two grinding units is used to grind the surface of the structure. Then, the surface of the actual structure is captured and compared to the target structure. Based on the comparison, the grinding parameters are adjusted and the surface is then ground, using the adjusted parameters, with the second of the two grinding units.
