Self-aligned nanometer-level transistor defined without lithography

摘要

A field effect transistor (FET) device structure and method for forming FETs for scaled semiconductor devices. Specifically, FinFET devices are fabricated from silicon-on-insulator (SOI) wafers in a highly uniform and reproducible manner. The method facilitates formation of FinFET devices with improved and reproducible fin height control while providing isolation between source and drain regions of the FinFET device.
