Abstract

A semiconductor structure and a method for forming a semiconductor structure are provided. The semiconductor structure includes a substrate; a gate electrode disposed within the substrate; a gate dielectric layer disposed within the substrate and surrounding the gate electrode; a plurality of first protection structures disposed over the gate electrode; a second protection structure disposed over the gate dielectric layer and contacting the gate dielectric layer; and a pair of source/drain regions on opposing sides of the gate dielectric layer.
