Abstract: A method for patterning a semiconductor structure is provided, including forming an additional third material layer on a thinner portion of a second material layer to be an etching buffer layer. The removed thickness of the thinner portion of the second material layer covered by the third material layer during an etching back process is therefore reduced.

Abstract: A method of generating a layout pattern including a FinFET structure layout includes the following processes. First, a layout pattern, which includes a sub-pattern having pitches in simple integer ratios, is provided to a computer system. The sub-pattern is then classified into a first sub-pattern and a second sub-pattern. Afterwards, first stripe patterns and at least one second stripe pattern are generated. The longitudinal edges of the first stripe patterns are aligned with the longitudinal edges of the first sub-pattern and the first stripe patterns have equal spacings and widths. The positions of the second stripe patterns correspond to the positions of the blank pattern, and spacings or widths of the second stripe patterns are different from the spacings or widths of the first stripe patterns. Finally, the first stripe patterns and the second stripe pattern are outputted to a photomask.

Abstract: A method of forming a layout definition of a semiconductor device includes the following steps. Firstly, a plurality of first patterns is established to form a material layer over a substrate, with the first patterns being regularly arranged in a plurality of columns along a first direction to form an array arrangement. Next, a plurality of second patterns is established to surround the first patterns. Then, a third pattern is established to form a blocking layer on the material layer, with the third pattern being overlapped with a portion of the second patterns and with at least one of the second patterns being partially exposed from the third pattern. Finally, the first patterns are used to form a plurality of first openings in a stacked structure on the substrate to expose a portion of the substrate respectively.
