ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a method of forming an aligned opening in a semiconductor device. A polysilicon layer is formed over the device. Then an opening is formed in the polysilicon layer by using patterning and etching. Subsequently, a thermal oxidation is performed to expand the volume of the polysilicon layer thereby narrowing the opening. The opening is smaller than the original opening generated by the patterning and etching, which will increase the accuracy of a opening.
