Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to a bird's beak profile of a field oxide region. In an example, a semiconductor device structure includes a semiconductor substrate, a dielectric oxide layer, and a field oxide region. The semiconductor substrate has a top surface. The dielectric oxide layer is over the top surface of the semiconductor substrate. The field oxide region is over the semiconductor substrate. The field oxide region is connected to the dielectric oxide layer through a bird's beak region. A lower surface of the bird's beak region interfaces with the semiconductor substrate. In a cross-section along a direction from the field oxide region to the dielectric oxide layer, the lower surface of the bird's beak region does not have a slope with a magnitude that exceeds 0.57735, where rise of the slope is in a direction normal to the top surface of the semiconductor substrate.
