Method for forming dynamic random access memory structure

Abstract

The present invention provides a method for forming a dynamic random access memory (DRAM) structure, the method including: firstly, a substrate is provided, a cell region and a peripheral region are defined on the substrate, a plurality of buried word lines is then formed in the cell region of the substrate, next, a shallow trench isolation structure is formed in the peripheral region adjacent to the cell region, wherein a concave top surface is formed on the shallow trench isolation structure, afterwards, a first dummy bit line gate is formed within the shallow trench isolation structure of the peripheral area, and a second dummy bit line gate is formed in the cell region and adjacent to the first dummy bit line gate, wherein a top surface of the first dummy bit line gate is lower than a top surface of the second dummy bit line gate.
