  • Patent number: 11984347
    Abstract: A semiconductor structure and a method for forming the same are provided. The method for forming a semiconductor structure includes the following operations. A substrate is provided. A dielectric layer having a first trench is formed on the substrate. A first filling layer is formed for partially filling the first trench. A first mask layer having a first opening is formed on the dielectric layer. The first opening exposes the first filling layer and part of the dielectric layer. The dielectric is etched by taking the first mask layer as a mask to form a second trench. The first filling layer is removed. And, conductive materials are formed in the first trench and the second trench.

  • Patent number: 11868053
    Abstract: A method for accurately obtaining a photolithography parameter. In the method, photolithography is performed on a target carrier with different preset photolithography parameters by using a same mask pattern as a mask, to obtain a plurality of target patterns. Each of the target pattern is compared with a standard pattern to obtain an evaluation value, and the target pattern is set as a valid pattern, when the evaluation value corresponding to the target pattern is greater than or equal to a preset value. A Bosung curve is drawn by taking a line width of the valid pattern and a preset photolithography parameter corresponding to the line width as data. The photolithography parameter corresponding to a preset line width is obtained according to the Bosung curve.
