Abstract
A method of forming semiconductor device, including forming a first protective strip and a second protective strip on a semiconductor substrate. The first protective strip and the second protective strip extend in a first direction and are alternately arranged in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. The first protective strip and the second protective strip are spaced apart from each other. The first protective strip is cut by selectively removing a portion of the first protective strip. The second protective strip is cut by selectively removing a portion of the second protective strip. The semiconductor substrate is etched to form an isolation trench. Remaining portions of the first and second protective strips are removed. An isolation feature is filled into the isolation trench. The isolation feature defines a plurality of strip-shaped active regions. Capacitor contacts are formed on both ends of each of the strip-shaped active regions.
