Abstract: A method of fabricating a DRAM includes providing a substrate. Later, a first mask layer is formed to cover the substrate. The first mask layer includes a hydrogen-containing silicon nitride layer and a silicon oxide layer. The hydrogen-containing silicon nitride layer has the chemical formula: SixNyHz, wherein x is between 4 and 8, y is between 3.5 and 9.5, and z equals 1. After that, the first mask layer is patterned to form a first patterned mask layer. Next, the substrate is etched by taking the first patterned mask layer as a mask to form a word line trench. Subsequently, the first patterned mask layer is removed entirely. Finally, a word line is formed in the word line trench.

Abstract: A fin-shaped structure includes a substrate having a first fin-shaped structure located in a first area and a second fin-shaped structure located in a second area, wherein the second fin-shaped structure includes a ladder-shaped cross-sectional profile part. The present invention also provides two methods of forming this fin-shaped structure. In one case, a substrate having a first fin-shaped structure and a second fin-shaped structure is provided. A treatment process is performed to modify an external surface of the top of the second fin-shaped structure, thereby forming a modified part. A removing process is performed to remove the modified part through a high removing selectivity to the first fin-shaped structure and the second fin-shaped structure, and the modified part, thereby the second fin-shaped structure having a ladder-shaped cross-sectional profile part is formed.
