    Abstract: A semiconductor structure includes a substrate and a target pattern. The target pattern is disposed on the substrate. The top-view pattern of the target pattern includes a main portion and a protruding portion. The main portion and the protruding portion are connected with each other along the long axis of the top-view pattern of the target pattern. The protruding portion is connected to the main portion. The protruding portion includes a first portion located on one side of the long axis. The maximum width of the first portion perpendicular to the long axis is less than half of the maximum width of the main portion.

    Abstract: A manufacturing method of a semiconductor device includes forming a hard mask layer and a photoresist on a substrate having a layer to be etched, and performing exposure and development such that the patterned photoresist has first trenches and to expose the hard mask layer, wherein ends of the first trenches have a width gradually decreased toward an end point. The exposed hard mask layer is removed using the patterned photoresist to transfer the pattern of the first trenches to the hard mask layer such that the patterned hard mask layer has second trenches, and the ends of the second trenches have a width gradually decreased toward an end point. Spacers are formed on inner walls of the second trenches. The hard mask layer is removed such that the layer to be etched is exposed. The exposed layer to be etched is removed using the spacers as an etch mask.

    Abstract: A manufacturing method of a semiconductor structure includes the following steps. A substrate is provided. A material layer is formed on the substrate. A first hard mask pattern is formed on the material layer. The top-view pattern of the first hard mask pattern is ring-shaped. The first hard mask pattern has an opening. A second hard mask pattern is formed on the first hard mask pattern. The second hard mask pattern fills the opening. The top-view pattern of the second hard mask pattern is completely located inside the outer contour of the top-view pattern of the first hard mask pattern. The pattern of the first hard mask pattern and the pattern of the second hard mask pattern are transferred to the material layer to form a first target pattern.

    Abstract: A word line layout includes a substrate, a first word line group, a second word line group, and an I-shaped third word line. The first word line group is disposed on the substrate and includes a plurality of L-shaped first word lines, and each of the first word lines has a first segment and a second segment connected to each other. The second word line group is disposed on the substrate and includes a plurality of L-shaped second word lines, and each of the second word lines has a first segment and a second segment connected to each other. The first word line group and the second word line group are arranged in juxtaposition and symmetric to each other. The I-shaped third word line is disposed on the outer side of the first word line group and the second word line group.

    Abstract: A method for forming a semiconductor memory structure includes sequentially forming an active layer, a hard mask layer and a core layer over a substrate, and etching the core layer to form a core pattern. The core pattern includes a first strip, a second strip, and a plurality of supporting features abutting the first and second strips. The method also includes forming a spacer layer alongside the core pattern, removing the core pattern, forming a photoresist pattern above the spacer layer, etching the hard mask layer using the photoresist pattern and the spacer layer to form a hard mask pattern, and transferring the hard mask pattern into the active layer to form a gate stack.
