Abstract:
A method for manufacturing a semiconductor structure including isolations includes receiving a substrate including a first region and a second region; forming a patterned hard mask, the patterned hard mask including a first opening exposing a portion of the first region and a second opening exposing a portion of the second region; removing portions of the substrate to form a first trench in the first region and to form a second trench in the second region; performing an ion implantation to a portion of the patterned hard mask in the first region and a portion of the substrate exposed from the first trench; enlarging the first opening to form a third opening over the first trench and enlarging the second opening to form a fourth opening over the second trench; and forming a first isolation by filling the first trench and a second isolation by filling the second trench.

Claim (Index 11):
The method of  claim 5 , wherein the forming the first isolation in the first trench and the second isolation in the second trench further comprises:\n performing a thermal operation; forming an insulating material to fill the first trench and the second trench, and a top surface of the insulating material being lower than a top surface of the patterned hard mask; and removing the patterned hard mask.
