Abstract:
A method for generating dummy patterns includes providing a layout region having a layout pattern with a first density, inserting a plurality of first dummy patterns with a second density corresponding to the first density in the layout pattern, dividing the layout region into a plurality of sub-regions with a third density, adjusting a size of the first dummy pattern according to a difference between the second density and the third density, and outputting the layout pattern and the first dummy patterns on a photomask.
Abstract:
A semiconductor layout pattern includes a device layout pattern, a plurality of rectangular first dummy patterns having a first size, a plurality of rectangular second dummy patterns having second sizes, and a plurality of bar-like third dummy patterns having varied third sizes. The pattern densities are smartly equalized by positioning the second dummy patterns.

Abstract:
A method for fabricating a metal-gate CMOS device. A substrate having thereon a first region and a second region is provided. A first dummy gate structure and a second dummy gate structure are formed within the first region and the second region respectively. A first LDD is formed on either side of the first dummy gate structure and a second LDD is formed on either side of the second dummy gate structure. A first spacer is formed on a sidewall of the first dummy gate structure and a second spacer is formed on a sidewall of the second dummy gate structure. A first embedded epitaxial layer is then formed in the substrate adjacent to the first dummy gate structure. The first region is masked with a seal layer. Thereafter, a second embedded epitaxial layer is formed in the substrate adjacent to the second dummy gate structure.
Abstract:
A Fin-FET and a method of forming the Fin-FET are provided. A substrate is provided, and then a mask layer is formed thereabove. A first trench is formed in the substrate and the mask layer. A semiconductor layer is formed in the first trench. Next, the mask layer is removed such that the semi-conductive layer becomes a fin structure embedded in the substrate and protruded above the substrate. Finally, a gate layer is formed on the fin structure.
