Abstract
A semiconductor structure includes a semiconductor substrate with a first region and a second region defined thereon. The first region is disposed adjoining the second region in a first direction. The semiconductor substrate includes fin structures, first recessed fins, and a bump. The fin structures are disposed in the first region. Each fin structure is elongated in the first direction. The first recessed fins are disposed in the second region. Each first recessed fin is elongated in the first direction. A topmost surface of each first recessed fin is lower than a topmost surface of each fin structure. The bump is disposed in the second region and disposed between two adjacent recessed fins in the first direction. A topmost surface of the bump is higher than the topmost surface of each first recessed fin and lower than the topmost surface of each fin structure.
