Abstract
A method for preparing a semiconductor structure includes providing a semiconductor substrate having a first surface; disposing a first dielectric layer over the first surface of the semiconductor substrate, a conductive layer over the first dielectric layer, and a second dielectric layer over the conductive layer; disposing a patterned mask over the second dielectric layer; removing portions of the second dielectric layer, the conductive layer and the first dielectric layer exposed through the patterned mask to form a first trench; forming a spacer surrounding the first dielectric layer, the conductive layer and the second dielectric layer; disposing an energy-decomposable mask over the second dielectric layer and the spacer; irradiating a portion of the energy-decomposable mask by an electromagnetic radiation; removing the portion of the energy-decomposable mask irradiated by the electromagnetic radiation; and removing a portion of the second dielectric layer exposed through the energy-decomposable mask.
