A method for avoiding micro-loading effect during etching is disclosed. The method comprises the steps of: providing a semiconductor substrate with a layer to be patterned and etched formed thereover; forming a masking layer over the layer to be patterned; defining a row pattern in the masking layer, the row pattern comprising a plurality of rectangles and a plurality of connecting bars, each of the connecting bars connecting two of the rectangles; and removing a portion of the layer to be patterned, to form a patterned layer with a recessed channel, by using the masking layer as a mask with the row pattern.
