  • Patent number: 11211478
    Abstract: A semiconductor structure and method for forming same are provided. The forming method includes: providing a base; forming a discrete core layer on the base; forming a spacer on a sidewall of the core layer; removing the core layer; after the core layer is removed, patterning the base using the spacer as a mask to form a fin, the fin including a device fin and a dummy fin; removing the spacer; performing doping removal on the dummy fin one or more times to remove the dummy fin, the step of the doping removal including: performing ion doping on the entire dummy fin or a part of the dummy fin in thickness for improving an etching selection ratio of the dummy fin to the device fin; and removing the ion-doped dummy fin. Embodiments and implementations of the present disclosure help increase a process window of a fin cut process.
