Abstract: A method for forming a semiconductor device. A substrate having a first region and a second region surrounding the first region is provided. The first region includes a first active area and a first gate. A dummy pattern is disposed on the substrate within the second region around a perimeter of the first region. A resist pattern masks the second region and includes an opening that exposes the first region. An ion implantation process is performed to implant dopants through the opening into the first active area not covered by the first gate within the first region, thereby forming doped regions in the first active area. A resist stripping process is performed to remove the resist pattern by using a sulfuric acid-hydrogen peroxide mixture (SPM) solution at a temperature that is higher than or equal to 120˜190 degrees Celsius. The substrate is subjected to a cleaning process.

Abstract: A method for fabricating semiconductor device includes the steps of: forming fin-shaped structures on a substrate; using isopropyl alcohol (IPA) to perform a rinse process; performing a baking process; and forming a gate oxide layer on the fin-shaped structures. Preferably, a duration of the rinse process is between 15 seconds to 60 seconds, a temperature of the baking process is between 50° C. to 100° C., and a duration of the baking process is between 5 seconds to 120 seconds.

Abstract: A semiconductor device with a deep trench isolation and a shallow trench isolation includes a substrate. The substrate is divided into a high voltage transistor region and a low voltage transistor region. A deep trench is disposed within the high voltage transistor region. The deep trench includes a first trench and a second trench. The first trench includes a first bottom. The second trench extends from the first bottom toward a bottom of the substrate. A first shallow trench and a second shallow trench are disposed within the low voltage transistor region. A length of the first shallow trench is the same as a length of the second trench. An insulating layer fills in the first trench, the second trench, the first shallow trench and the second shallow trench.

Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a substrate with a high voltage region and a low voltage region. A first deep trench isolation is disposed within the high voltage region. The first deep trench isolation includes a first deep trench and a first insulating layer filling the first deep trench. The first deep trench includes a first sidewall and a second sidewall facing the first sidewall. The first sidewall is formed by a first plane and a second plane. The edge of the first plane connects to the edge of the second plane. The slope of the first plane is different from the slope of the second plane.
