Abstract
A method of forming a semiconductor structure and the semiconductor structure are provided. The method includes the following operations. A semiconductor substrate is provided, in which a plurality of isolation grooves distributed at intervals are provided in the semiconductor substrate, and each of the isolation grooves includes a top region isolation groove and a bottom region isolation groove. A first protective layer covering the side wall of the top region isolation groove and the top of the semiconductor substrate is formed. Oxidation treatment is performed on the bottom region isolation groove to oxidize a part of the semiconductor substrate close to the bottom region isolation groove to form a second substrate isolation layer. A dielectric layer filling the isolation groove is formed. The first protective layer and the dielectric layer higher than the top of the semiconductor substrate are etched to form an isolation structure.
