Abstract

A method for forming a semiconductor device includes the steps of providing a material layer to be etched, wherein material layer to be etched has a barrier layer; forming a plurality of discrete sacrificial layers on the surface of the barrier layer; forming a first sidewall material layer on the top surfaces and the sidewall surfaces of the sacrificial layers, and the surface of the barrier layer; etching the first sidewall material layer until exposing the surface of the barrier layer and top surfaces of the sacrificial layers, forming a first side wall on the sidewalls of the sacrificial layers, with an etching selection ratio of the first sidewall material layer to the barrier layer being greater than or equal to 10; and after removing the sacrificial layers, etching the barrier layerand the material to be etched by using the first sidewall as a mask. The method of forming the semiconductor device improves the performance of the patterns in the semiconductor device.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of semiconductor manufacturing, in particular to a method for forming a semiconductor device. Background technique [0002] In the manufacturing process of semiconductor devices, the pattern on the mask plate is usually transferred to the substrate by photolithography process. The photolithography process includes: providing a substrate; forming a photoresist on the semiconductor substrate; exposing and developing the photoresist to form a patterned photoresist, so that the pattern on the mask plate is transferred to the photoresist Middle; the substrate is etched with the patterned photoresist as a mask, so that the pattern on the photoresist is transferred to the substrate; the photoresist is removed. With the continuous shrinking of the size of semiconductor devices, the critical dimensions of lithography are gradually approaching or even exceeding the physical limit of lithography, which poses more severe challen...
