SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE AND METHOD FOR FABRICATING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18073739 titled 'SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE AND METHOD FOR FABRICATING THE SAME

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a method for fabricating a semiconductor device.

  • The method involves forming a sacrificial pad with multiple line portions and auxiliary lines over a lower structure.
  • An etch target layer is then formed over the sacrificial pad.
  • Multiple openings are created by etching the etch-target layer, stopping at the sacrificial pad.
  • Pillars are formed to fill these openings.
  • An isolation trench is formed by etching the etch-target layer, stopping at the sacrificial pad.
  • Finally, a pad-type recess is created by removing the sacrificial pad through the isolation trench.


Original Abstract Submitted

A method for fabricating a semiconductor device includes: forming a sacrificial pad including a plurality of line portions and a plurality of auxiliary lines over a lower structure; forming an etch target layer over the sacrificial pad; forming a plurality of openings by etching the etch-target layer and stopping the etching at the sacrificial pad; forming a pillar filling the openings; forming an isolation trench by etching the etch-target layer and stopping the etching at the sacrificial pad; and forming a pad-type recess by removing the sacrificial pad through the isolation trench.
