Abstract: A method of forming a gate dielectric layer for a MOS transistor includes the following steps. A gate dielectric layer is formed on a substrate. A nitrdation process is performed on the gate dielectric layer. A multi-step post nitridation annealing process including two oxygen-containing annealing steps with different respective annealing temperatures is performed on the gate dielectric layer.

Abstract: An acid replenishing system includes an acid tank, a draining apparatus, an acid replenishing apparatus, and a control unit. The acid tank contains a used acid solution. The draining apparatus drains an amount of the used acid solution from the acid tank. The acid replenishing apparatus replenishes an amount of a replenishing acid into the acid tank. The control unit controls the draining apparatus and the acid replenishing apparatus to perform a plurality of acid replenishing stages, so a total set amount of the replenishing acid to be added into the acid tank has been replenished.
