Abstract: A method for fabricating semiconductor device includes the steps of forming a magnetic tunneling junction (MTJ) stack on a substrate, performing an etching process to remove the MTJ stack for forming a MTJ, performing a deposition process to form a polymer on a sidewall of the MTJ, and removing the polymer to form a rough surface on the sidewall of the MTJ. Preferably, the MTJ could include a pinned layer on the substrate, a barrier layer on the pinned layer, and a free layer on the barrier layer, in which the rough surface could appear on sidewall of the pinned layer, sidewall of the barrier layer, and/or sidewall of the free layer.

Abstract: A method for forming a semiconductor structure is provided. Multiple fins extending along a first direction are formed in a semiconductor substrate. The multiple fins includes a group of active fins, a pair of protection fins sandwiching about the group the active fins, and at least one dummy fin around the pair of protection fins. A fin cut process is performed to remove the at least one dummy fin around the pair of protection fins. After performing the fin cut process, trench isolation structures are formed within the trenches between the multiple fins. The trench isolation structures are subjected to an anneal process. After annealing the trench isolation structures, the pair of protection fins is removed.
