Abstract:
A semiconductor arrangement comprises a substrate region and a first semiconductor column projecting from the substrate region. The semiconductor arrangement comprises a second semiconductor column projecting from the substrate region. The second semiconductor column is separated a first distance from the first semiconductor column. The first distance is between about 10 nm to about 30 nm.

Claim (Index 20):
A method of forming a semiconductor arrangement, comprising:\n using a lithography tool having a resolution limit and forming a first mask structure and a second mask structure over a substrate, wherein the first mask structure and the second mask structure extend in a first direction and are separated by a first pitch greater than or equal to the resolution limit; forming a third mask structure and a fourth mask structure over the substrate and between the first mask structure and the second mask structure, wherein:\n the third mask structure and the fourth mask structure extend in the first direction, \n the third mask structure interfaces with the first mask structure, and \n the fourth mask structure interfaces with the second mask structure; \n forming a fifth mask structure over the substrate and between the third mask structure and the fourth mask structure, the fifth mask structure interfacing with the third mask structure and the fourth mask structure; forming a sixth mask structure over the first mask structure, the second mask structure, the third mask structure, the fourth mask structure, and the fifth mask structure, wherein the sixth mask structure extends in a second direction; removing a portion of the third mask structure and the fourth mask structure not concealed by the sixth mask structure; and using a second portion of the third mask structure and a second portion of the fourth mask structure to form semiconductor columns from the substrate, wherein a pitch between a first semiconductor column of the semiconductor columns and a second semiconductor column of the semiconductor columns is less than the resolution limit of the lithography tool.
