Quasi self-aligned source/drain FinFET process

摘要

A method of forming a semiconductor structure including a plurality of finFFET devices in which crossing masks are employed in providing a rectangular patterns to define relatively thin Fins along with a chemical oxide removal (COR) process is provided. The present method further includes a step of merging adjacent Fins by the use of a selective silicon-containing material. The present invention also relates to the resultant semiconductor structure that is formed utilizing the method of the present invention.
