    Abstract: A method of forming a semiconductor device includes following steps. First of all, plural first openings and plural second openings are sequentially formed on a material layer disposed on a substrate, with the second openings across the first openings to form plural overlapped regions. Then, plural patterns arranged in an array arrangement are formed, with each pattern overlapped each overlapped region, respectively. After that, transferring the first openings, the second openings and the patterns to the material layer, to from plural material patterns in an array arrangement. In another embodiment of the present invention, the first openings and the second openings may be replaced by plural first patterns and plural second patterns, while the patterns are replaced by plural openings.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of forming a memory capacitor. A substrate is provided with a plurality of storage node contacts. A patterned supporting structure is formed on the substrate, following by forming a bottom electrode conformally on surface of plural openings in the patterned supporting structure, thereby contacting the storage node contacts. A sacrificial layer is formed in the opening. A soft etching process is performed to remove the bottom electrode on top and partial sidewall of the patterned supporting structure, wherein the soft etching process includes using a fluoride containing compound, a nitrogen and hydrogen containing compound and an oxygen containing compound. The sacrificial layer is completely removed away. A capacitor dielectric layer and a top electrode are formed on the bottom electrode layer.

    Abstract: A patterning method is disclosed. A substrate having a hard mask layer and a first material layer formed thereon is provided. The first material layer is patterned into first array patterns and first peripheral patterns. The first array patterns are further transferred into first spacer patterns. Subsequently, a planarization layer and a second material layer are successively formed on the substrate. The second material layer is patterned into second array patterns and second peripheral patterns. The second array patterns are further transferred into second spacer patterns. The second spacer patterns partially overlap the first spacer patterns. The second peripheral patterns do not overlap the first peripheral pattern. The first spacer patterns not overlapped by the second spacer patterns are removed to obtain third array patterns. The hard mask layer is then etched using the third array patterns, the second peripheral patterns and the first peripheral patterns as an etching mask.

    Abstract: A semiconductor device and method of forming the same, the semiconductor device includes bit lines, a transistor, a dielectric layer, plugs and a capping layer. The bit lines are disposed on a substrate within a cell region thereof, and the transistor is disposed on the substrate within a periphery region. The plugs are disposed in the dielectric layer, within the cell region and the periphery region respectively. The capping layer is disposed on the dielectric layer, and the capping layer disposed within the periphery region is between those plugs. That is, a portion of the dielectric layer is therefore between the capping layer and the transistor.
