Abstract: A method of fabricating a buried word line structure includes providing a substrate with a word line trench therein. Two source/drain doped regions are disposed in the substrate at two sides of the word line trench. Later, a silicon oxide layer is formed to cover the word line trench. A titanium nitride layer is formed to cover the silicon oxide layer. Next, a tilt ion implantation process is performed to implant silicon atoms into the titanium nitride layer to transform part of the titanium nitride layer into a titanium silicon nitride layer. A conductive layer is formed in the word line trench. Subsequently, part of the conductive layer, part of the titanium silicon nitride layer and part of the silicon oxide layer are removed to form a recess. Finally, a cap layer fills in the recess.

Abstract: A method of fabricating an STI trench includes providing a substrate. Later, a first mask is formed to cover the substrate. The first mask includes numerous sub-masks. A first trench is disposed between each sub-mask. Subsequently, a protective layer is formed to fill up the first trench. Then, a second mask is formed to cover the first mask. The second mask includes an opening. The sub-mask directly disposed under the opening is defined as a joint STI pattern. After that, the joint STI pattern is removed to transform the first mask into a third mask. Later, the second mask is removed followed by removing the protective layer. Finally, part of the substrate is removed by taking the third mask as a mask to form numerous STI trenches.

Abstract: A method of forming a semiconductor device includes the following steps. First of all, a material layer is formed on a substrate, and a sidewall image transferring process is performed to form plural first mask patterns on the material layer, with the first mask patterns parallel extended along a first direction. Next, a pattern splitting process is performed to remove a portion of the first mask patterns to form plural second openings, with the second openings parallel extended along a second direction, across the first mask patterns. Then, the material layer is patterned by using rest portions of the first mask patterns as a mask to form plural patterns arranged in an array.

Abstract: A method of improving micro-loading effect when recess etching a tungsten layer. A substrate having trenches thereon is provided. A tungsten layer is deposited on the substrate and in the trenches. A planarization process is performed to form a planarization layer on the tungsten layer. A first etching process is performed to etch the planarization layer and the tungsten layer with an etch selectivity of planarization layer:tungsten layer=1:1 until the planarization layer is completely removed. A second etching process is performed to etch the remainder of the tungsten layer to recess the tungsten layer within the trenches.

Abstract: A method of fabricating a mask pattern includes providing numerous masks on a substrate. A wider trench and a narrower trench are respectively defined between the mask. Subsequently, a mask material is formed to fill in the wider trench and the narrower trench. The top surface of the mask material overlapping the wider trench is lower than the top surface of the mask material overlapping the narrower trench. A photoresist layer is formed on the mask material overlapping the wider trench. Later, the mask material overlapping the narrower trench is etched while the mask material overlapping the wider trench is protected by the photoresist layer.
