Semiconductor device, and manufacturing method thereof

An object is to provide a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device, in which the number of photolithography steps can be reduced, the manufacturing process can be simplified, and manufacturing can be performed with high yield at low cost A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device includes the following steps: forming a semiconductor film; irradiating a laser beam by passing the laser beam through a photomask including a shield for shielding the laser beam; subliming a region which has been irradiated with the laser beam through a region in which the shield is not formed in the photomask in the semiconductor film; forming an island-shaped semiconductor film in such a way that a region which is not irradiated with the laser beam is not sublimed because it is a region in which the shield is formed in the photomask; forming a first electrode which is one of a source electrode and a drain electrode and a second electrode which is the other one of the source electrode and the drain electrode; forming a gate insulating film; and forming a gate electrode over the gate insulating film

Method for Manufacturing Semiconductor Device

A method of fabricating a semiconductor device includes preparing a semiconductor wafer having a top surface and a bottom surface. The semiconductor wafer is loaded onto a wafer chuck, and the bottom surface of the loaded semiconductor wafer faces the wafer chuck. A groove is formed in the top surface of the loaded semiconductor wafer by irradiating a second laser onto the top surface, and a reforming region is formed in the loaded semiconductor wafer under the groove by irradiating a first laser through wafer chuck and bottom surface of the semiconductor wafer into a region in which the first laser is focused. The semiconductor wafer is unloaded from the wafer chuck. The bottom surface of the semiconductor wafer is ground to decrease a thickness of the semiconductor wafer. The semiconductor wafer is separated along the groove and the reforming region, thereby forming a plurality of unit chips.

Method of Fabricating Semiconductor Device

A method for fabricating a semiconductor device, in which a lifting phenomenon can be prevented from occurring in forming an amorphous carbon film on an etched layer having tensile stress. According to the invention, since a compression stress on the etched layer or the amorphous carbon film can be reduced or a compression stress film is formed between the etched layer or the amorphous carbon film to prevent a lifting phenomenon from occurring and thus another pattern can be formed to fabricate a highly integrated semiconductor device.

Method for Fabricating Semiconductor Device

A method for making a semiconductor device is described. That method comprises forming a first dielectric layer on a substrate, a trench within the first dielectric layer, and a second dielectric layer on the substrate. The second dielectric layer has a first part that is formed in the trench and a second part. After a first metal layer with a first workfunction is formed on the first and second parts of the second dielectric layer, part of the first metal layer is converted into a second metal layer with a second workfunction.

A conductive top surface of a replacement gate stack is recessed relative to a top surface of a planarization dielectric layer by at least one etch. A dielectric capping layer is deposited over the planarization dielectric layer and the top surface of the replacement gate stack so that the top surface of a portion of the dielectric capping layer over the replacement gate stack is vertically recessed relative to another portion of the dielectric layer above the planarization dielectric layer. The vertical offset of the dielectric capping layer can be employed in conjunction with selective via etch processes to form a self-aligned contact structure.
