    Abstract: A method of manufacturing a semiconductor structure. A patterned first hard mask is formed on a substrate. The patterned first hard mask includes first trench patterns extending along a first direction. A second hard mask is then formed on the patterned first hard mask. A patterned photoresist layer is formed on the second hard mask. The patterned photoresist layer includes second trench patterns extending along a second direction. The second trench patterns intersect first trench patterns. Using the patterned photoresist layer as an etch mask, a first etch process is performed to transfer the second trench patterns into the patterned first hard mask and the second hard mask. Subsequently, using the patterned first hard mask as an etch mask, a second etch process is performed to transfer the first trench patterns and the second trench patterns into the substrate.

    Abstract translation: 一种制造半导体结构的方法。 在基板上形成图案化的第一硬掩模。 图案化的第一硬掩模包括沿着第一方向延伸的第一沟槽图案。 然后在图案化的第一硬掩模上形成第二硬掩模。 在第二硬掩模上形成图案化的光致抗蚀剂层。 图案化的光致抗蚀剂层包括沿着第二方向延伸的第二沟槽图案。 第二沟槽图案与第一沟槽图案相交。 使用图案化的光致抗蚀剂层作为蚀刻掩模,执行第一蚀刻工艺以将第二沟槽图案转印到图案化的第一硬掩模和第二硬掩模中。 随后,使用图案化的第一硬掩模作为蚀刻掩模,执行第二蚀刻工艺以将第一沟槽图案和第二沟槽图案转移到衬底中。
