Abstract

A method for testing a semiconductor structure includes forming a dielectric layer over a test region of a substrate. A cap layer is formed over the dielectric layer. The dielectric layer and the cap layer are annealed. The annealed cap layer is removed. A ferroelectricity of the annealed dielectric layer is in-line tested.
