Abstract:
A fin structure cutting process includes the following steps. Four fin structures are formed in a substrate, where the four fin structures including a first fin structure, a second fin structure, a third fin structure and a fourth fin structure are arranged sequentially and parallel to each other. A first fin structure cutting process is performed to remove top parts of the second fin structure and the third fin structure, thereby a first bump being formed from the second fin structure, and a second bump being formed from the third fin structure. A second fin structure cutting process is performed to remove the second bump and the fourth fin structure completely, but to preserve the first bump beside the first fin structure. Moreover, the present invention provides a fin structure formed by said process.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a manufacturing method of a semiconductor device, including providing a substrate, where a first dielectric layer is formed on the substrate, at least one gate is formed in the first dielectric layer, at least one hard mask is disposed on the top surface of the gate, and at least two spacers are disposed on two sides of the gate respectively. Next, a blanket implantation process is performed on the hard mask and the first dielectric layer, so as to form an ion rich region in the first dielectric layer, in the hard mask and in the spacer respectively. An etching process is then performed to form a plurality of trenches in the first dielectric layer, and a conductive layer is filled in each trench to form a plurality of contacts in the first dielectric layer.
Abstract:
A Fin-FET and a method of forming the Fin-FET are provided. A substrate is provided, and then a mask layer is formed thereabove. A first trench is formed in the substrate and the mask layer. A semiconductor layer is formed in the first trench. Next, the mask layer is removed such that the semi-conductive layer becomes a fin structure embedded in the substrate and protruded above the substrate. Finally, a gate layer is formed on the fin structure.
Abstract:
A FINFET transistor structure includes a substrate including a fin structure. Two combined recesses embedded within the substrate, wherein each of the combined recesses includes a first recess extending in a vertical direction and a second recess extending in a lateral direction, the second recess has a protruding side extending to and under the fin structure. Two filling layers respectively fill in the combined recesses. A gate structure crosses the fin structure.
Abstract:
A method of gap filling includes providing a substrate having a plurality of gaps formed therein. Then, an in-situ steam generation oxidation is performed to form an oxide liner on the substrate. The oxide liner is formed to cover surfaces of the gaps. Subsequently, a high aspect ratio process is performed to form an oxide protecting layer on the oxide liner. After forming the oxide protecting layer, a flowable chemical vapor deposition is performed to form an oxide filling on the oxide protecting layer. More important, the gaps are filled up with the oxide filling layer.
Abstract:
A fabrication method for a semiconductor structure at least includes the following steps. First, a pattern mask with a predetermined layout pattern is formed on a substrate. The layout pattern is then transferred to the underneath substrate so as to form at least a fin-shaped structure in the substrate. Subsequently, a shallow trench isolation structure is formed around the fin-shaped structure. Afterwards, a steam oxidation process is carried out to oxidize the fin-shaped structure protruding from the shallow trench isolation and to form an oxide layer on its surface. Finally, the oxide layer is removed completely.
