Abstract
The present application relates to a formation method for an air spacer layer and a semiconductor structure. The formation method for an air spacer layer includes: forming a first structure on a substrate and forming a second structure on the substrate, the second structure being located on a side surface of the first structure, a first trench being formed between the second structure and the first structure, and the second structure being exposed in the first trench; and growing, by an epitaxial growth process, an epitaxial layer on the second structure exposed in the first trench, the epitaxial layer not filling up the first trench, and an unfilled portion of the first trench forming the air spacer layer.
