Abstract

A method for manufacturing a semiconductor structure is provided. The method may include several operations. A first layer is formed over a first region and a second region of a substrate. A first etching is performed on the first layer, thereby forming a first trench in the first region and a second trench in the second region. A first amorphization is performed on the first layer in the second region. A second etching is performed on the first layer, wherein an etching rate of the second etching in the second region is greater than an etching rate of the second etching in the first region.
