Abstract
A semiconductor structure and a method for forming a semiconductor structure are provided. In some embodiments, a method is provided. The method includes following operations. A sacrificial gate structure is formed over a fin structure. The sacrificial gate structure includes a sacrificial gate layer and a sacrificial dielectric layer. The sacrificial gate layer is removed to form a gate trench exposing the sacrificial dielectric layer. A doped region is formed in the fin structure covered by the sacrificial dielectric layer. The sacrificial dielectric layer, a portion of the doped region and a portion of the fin structure are removed from the gate trench. An interfacial layer is formed over the fin structure in the gate trench.
