Abstract

A method for fabricating semiconductor device is disclosed. First, a substrate is provided, a first gate pattern is formed on the substrate, a first spacer is formed around the first gate pattern, part of the first gate pattern is removed to form a first slot, a first dielectric layer is formed into the first slot, and a replacement metal gate (RMG) process is performed to transform part of the first gate pattern into a metal gate.
