Abstract

The invention provides a semiconductor structure and a forming method thereof, and the method comprises the steps: providing a semiconductor substrate, forming a sacrificial layer on the semiconductor substrate, etching the sacrificial layer to form a sacrificial pattern, etching the semiconductor substrate by using the sacrificial pattern as an etching mask to form an active region of the semiconductor substrate, and trimming the sacrificial pattern; and replacing the trimmed sacrificial pattern with a gate electrode.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to semiconductor structures, and more particularly to flash memory. Background technique [0002] In recent years, due to the advantages of high density, low cost, rewritable and electrical erasability, flash memory has become the mainstream of non-volatile memory components and is widely used in Various portable electronic products, such as notebook computers, digital players, digital cameras, mobile phones, game consoles and other related portable electronic products. [0003] With the shrinking of memory technology, the general flash memory technology will face some challenges. For example, a void is formed in a floating gate. Voids in the floating gate reduce the reliability and manufacturing yield of the memory device. Therefore, how to provide a method for forming a flash memory to reduce the possibility of forming voids in the floating gate will become an important subject. Contents of the invention [0004] ...
