Abstract

Method for fabricating a semiconductor structure is provided. First features are formed in a first product region of each die area in a material layer through a first mask. Second features are formed in a second product region of each die area in the material layer through a second mask. Third features are formed in a third product region of each die area in the material layer through a third mask. Fourth features are formed in a fourth product region of each die area in the material layer through a fourth mask. Fifth features are formed in an alignment region of each die area in the material layer through the first through fourth masks. The first product region is adjacent to and in physical contact with the second and third product regions, and the first product region is free of the second, third, and fourth features.
