Abstract:
A semiconductor structure, integrated circuit device, and method of forming semiconductor structure are provided. In various embodiments, the semiconductor structure includes a substrate containing a high topography region and a low topography region, an outer protection wall on an outer peripheral portion of the high topography region next to the low topography region, and an anti-reflective coating over the outer protection wall, the high topography region, and the low topography region.

Claim (Index 9):
A method for forming a semiconductor structure, wherein the method comprises:\n forming a semiconductor stack protruding from a substrate; forming a protection structure on the semiconductor stack, wherein the protection structure encircles a periphery of the semiconductor stack and covers a portion of a top surface of the semiconductor stack, thereby exposing an uncovered portion of the top surface of the semiconductor stack and forming a recess over the semiconductor stack; and applying an anti-reflective coating covering the protection structure, wherein the anti-reflective coating comprises a first portion formed in the recess, a second portion overlying the protection structure and a third portion covering a sidewall of the protection structure.
