Abstract:
A method of reducing silicon consumption of a silicon material. The method comprises cleaning a silicon material and subjecting the cleaned silicon material to a vacuum anneal at a temperature below a melting point of silicon and under vacuum conditions. The silicon material is subjected to additional process acts without substantially removing silicon of the silicon material. Additional methods of forming a semiconductor structure and forming isolation structures are also disclosed.
