Abstract
A method for manufacturing one or more semiconductor devices may include the following steps: providing a dielectric layer on a substrate structure that includes a first electrode and a second electrode; providing a first mask on the dielectric layer; providing a second mask, which overlaps the first mask and has a designated structure, wherein a portion of the first mask is positioned between a first portion and a second portion of the designated structure in a layout view of a process structure that includes the first mask and the second mask; and performing a removal process through the first portion of the designated structure and through the second portion of the designated structure to form a first contact hole and a second contact hole in a remaining portion of the dielectric layer, wherein the two contact holes expose the two electrodes, respectively.
