Abstract
A method for manufacturing raised strip-shaped active areas is disclosed, including: step 1: performing etching on a semiconductor substrate to form patterning raised strip-shaped structures and shallow trenches; step 2: forming a second dielectric layer which fills the shallow trenches and extends to a surface of the first hard mask layer on top surfaces of the raised strip-shaped structures; step 3: performing the first CMP on second dielectric layer, the first CMP stops at a surface of a first hard mask layer; step 4: performing planarization adjustment on a top surface of the second dielectric layer through second wet etching to reduce a height difference of the top surface of the second dielectric layer in different areas; step 5: removing the first hard mask layer; and step 6: performing third dry etching to reduce the top surface of the second dielectric layer to below the top surface of each raised strip-shaped structure.
