  • Publication number: 20250098276
    Abstract: Methods for forming a semiconductor device structure are described. The method includes forming first and second fin structures over a substrate and forming a dielectric wall between the first and second fin structures. The forming the dielectric wall includes depositing a first dielectric layer between the first and second fin structures, and a seam is formed in the first dielectric layer. The forming the dielectric wall further includes performing an anisotropic etch process to remove a portion of the first dielectric layer to expose the seam, performing an isotropic etch process to enlarge an opening of the seam, and the seam has a ā€œVā€ shaped cross-sectional profile. The forming the dielectric wall further includes depositing a second dielectric layer between the first and second fin structures, and the seam is filled. The method further includes forming shallow trench isolation regions adjacent the first and second fin structures.
