20080254640 | METHOD OF REMOVING MATERIAL LAYER AND REMNANT METAL - A method of removing material layer is disclosed. First, a semiconductor substrate is fixed on a rotating platform, where a remnant material layer is included on the surface of the semiconductor substrate. Afterward, an etching process is carried out. In the etching process, the rotating platform is rotated, and an etching solution is sprayed from a center region and a side region of the rotating platform toward the semiconductor substrate until the material layer is removed. Since the semiconductor substrate is etched by the etching solution sprayed from both the center region and the side region of the rotating platform, the etching uniformity of the semiconductor substrate is improved. | 10-16-2008 |
20080305600 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR FABRICATING HIGH TENSILE STRESS FILM - A method and an apparatus for fabricating a high tensile stress film includes providing a substrate, forming a poly stressor on the substrate, and performing an ultra violet rapid thermal process (UVRTP) for curing the poly stressor and adjusting its tensile stress status, thus the poly stressor serves as a high tensile stress film. Due to a combination of energy from photons and heat, the tensile stress status of the high tensile stress film is adjusted in a relatively shorter process period or under a relatively lower temperature. | 12-11-2008 |

The portion of the spacer structure exposed to the opening is removed so as to broaden the opening. Afterwards, remove the sacrificial layer completely via the opening. Finally, a gate conductive layer is formed to fill the opening. | 06-02-2011 |
