A semiconductor memory structure includes a semiconductor substrate including an active region and a chop region. The semiconductor memory structure also includes an isolation structure disposed in the chop region, a first gate structure extending at least through the isolation structure in the chop region, and a second gate structure extending at least through the active region. The semiconductor memory structure also includes a doped region disposed in the active region. A first distance between the doped region and the first gate structure is shorter than a second distance between the doped region and the second gate structure.

A semiconductor structure and a manufacturing method thereof are provided. The semiconductor structure includes a substrate, a dielectric layer disposed on the substrate, bit lines disposed on the dielectric layer, spacers and a contact. The substrate has active areas arranged in parallel with each other. The bit lines are arranged in parallel with each other. Each bit line is partially overlapped with the corresponding active area. Each bit line has first portions and second portions arranged alternately in an extending direction thereof, and a width of the first portions is smaller than that of the second portions. The spacers are disposed on the sidewalls of each bit line. The contact is disposed between the adjacent bit lines and adjacent to the corresponding first portion of at least one of the adjacent bit lines, penetrates through the dielectric layer, and is in contact with the corresponding active area.

Semiconductor device and method for manufacturing the same

A method of fabricating a memory device includes providing a substrate having a first region and a second region. A first dielectric layer is formed on the substrate in the first region. A conductive layer is formed on the substrate in the second region. A top surface of the conductive layer is lower than a top surface of the first dielectric layer. A second dielectric layer is formed on the substrate. A portion of the second dielectric layer and a portion of the conductive layer are removed to form a first opening in the conductive layer and the second dielectric layer in the second region. The first opening exposes a surface of the substrate. A portion of the substrate in the second region is removed to form a trench in the substrate in the second region. A third dielectric layer is formed in the trench and the first opening.
