| 摘要 |
Semiconductor devices and fabrication methods are provided, in which gate defects associated with photoresist stress after plasma trim/etch are substantially reduced. The method comprises forming a gate dielectric layer above a semiconductor body substrate; coating the gate dielectric layer with a photoresist coating; exposing and developing the photoresist coating; performing a resist annealing; and trimming and etching the photoresist coating.
