Abstract
A semiconductor structure and forming method thereof are provided. The semiconductor structure includes a substrate, a gate dielectric, a gate electrode and dielectric structures. The gate dielectric has a top surface aligned with a top surface of the substrate. The gate electrode is disposed over the substrate and overlaps the gate dielectric. The gate electrode has first segments extending in parallel along a direction. The dielectric structures are disposed over the substrate, overlap the gate dielectric and extend in parallel along the direction. The dielectric structures and the first segments are arranged in an alternating pattern.
