Abstract:
The present invention provides a method for forming a stacked layer structure, including: first, a recess is provided, next, an oxide layer is formed in the recess, where the oxide layer has a thickness T1, a high-k layer is formed on the oxide layer, a barrier layer is formed on the high-k layer, a silicon layer is then formed on the barrier layer, afterwards, an annealing process is performed on the silicon layer, so as to form an oxygen-containing layer between the silicon layer and the barrier layer, where the oxide layer has a thickness T2 after the annealing process is performed, and satisfies the relationship: (T2−T1)/T1≦0.05, and the silicon layer and the oxygen-containing layer are removed.
Abstract:
A method for fabricating semiconductor device includes the steps of: forming a trench in a substrate; forming a pad layer adjacent to two sides of trench; forming a dielectric layer to fill the trench; and performing a dry etching process to remove the pad layer and part of the dielectric layer to form a shallow trench isolation (STI). Preferably, the dry etching process comprises a non-plasma etching process.
Abstract:
A semiconductor structure with a multilayer gate oxide is provided. The structure includes a substrate. A multilayer gate oxide is disposed on the substrate, wherein the multilayer gate oxide includes a first gate oxide and a second gate oxide. The first gate oxide contacts the substrate and the second gate oxide is disposed on and contacts the first gate oxide. The second gate oxide is hydrophilic. The first gate oxide is formed by a thermal oxidation process. The second gate oxide is formed by a chemical treatment.
