Method of manufacturing a semiconductor chip. An array region gate stack is formed on an array region of a substrate and a periphery region gate stack is formed on a periphery region of a substrate. A first dielectric material, a charge-storing material, and a second dielectric material are deposited over the substrate. Portions of the first dielectric material, the charge-storing material, and the second dielectric material are removed to form storage structures on the array region gate stack and on the periphery region gate stack. The storage structures have a generally L-shaped cross-section. A first source/drain region is formed in the array region well. A third dielectric material and a spacer material are deposited over the substrate. Portions of the third dielectric material and the spacer material are removed to form spacers. A second source/drain region is formed in the periphery region well.

A semiconductor structure and a method for forming the semiconductor structure are provided. The method for forming a semiconductor structure of the present invention may include the following steps. First, a substrate is provided, wherein a gate is formed over the substrate, and a plurality of offspacers are formed over a sidewall of the gate. Then, a source/drain trench is formed in the substrate at two sides of the gate respectively. Next, an outermost offspacer of the offspacers is removed to expose a flat surface on a surface of the substrate. Thereafter, the source/drain trenches are filled to form a source/drain region. Then, a lightly doped drain (LDD) region is formed in a portion of the substrate under the flat surface.

A method of manufacturing a metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) transistor device is disclosed. A semiconductor substrate having a main surface is prepared. A gate dielectric layer is formed on the main surface. A gate electrode is patterned on the gate dielectric layer. The gate electrode has vertical sidewalls and a top surface. A liner is formed on the vertical sidewalls of the gate electrode. A silicon nitride spacer is formed on the liner. The main surface is then ion implanted using the gate electrode and the silicon nitride spacer as an implantation mask, thereby forming a source/drain region of the MOS transistor device in the main surface. The silicon nitride spacer is removed. A silicon nitride cap layer that borders the liner is deposited. The silicon nitride cap layer has a specific stress status.

A method of correcting a mask layout is provided. The mask layout includes a plurality of element patterns. An inspection program is executed to classify the element patterns of the mask layout into a plurality of element pattern types according to a pattern density of the element patterns. Following this, each of the element pattern types is corrected so as to prevent a plasma micro-loading effect.

A structure of a Trapezoid-Triple-Gate Field Effect Transistor (FET) includes a plurality of trapezoid pillars being transversely formed on an crystalline substrate or Silicon-On-Insulator (SOI) wafer. The trapezoid pillars can juxtapose with both ends connected each other. Each trapezoid pillar has a source, a channel region, and a drain aligned in longitudinal direction and a gate latitudinally superposes the channel region of the trapezoid pillar. The triple gate field effect transistor comprises a dielectric layer formed between the channel region and the conductive gate structure.

A photolithography process with multiple exposures is provided. A photomask is placed and aligned above a wafer having a photoresist formed thereon at a predetermined distance. Multiple exposures are sequentially performed on the photoresist through the photomask. Each of the multiple exposures is provided with a respective illuminating setting that is optimized for one duty ratio of the photomask. Thereby, an optimum through-pitch performance for pattern transfer from the photomask unto the photoresist is obtained. Then, a development is performed on the photoresist.

An optical proximity correction method for rectifying pattern on photoresist. Line pattern of integrated circuit is divided into L-shape regions or T-shaped regions. The L-shaped or T-shaped regions are further dissected into rectangular patches. Area of each rectangular patch is suitably reduced and reproduced onto a photomask. The photomask is used to form a corrected photoresist pattern.
