Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device, and more particularly to a method of manufacturing a fin field effect transistor device. Background technique
[0002] A double-gate metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (double-gate MOSFET) is a metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor that combines two gate structures into a single device. The device is also known as a Fin Field Effect Transistor (FinFET) because its structure includes "fins" extending from the substrate. FinFETs can be manufactured using the technology of general metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors. A typical FinFET is fabricated on a silicon layer with an insulating layer covering it, and the above-mentioned device will extend out of the insulating layer, like a fin of the silicon layer. Channels for field effect transistors are formed in the vertical fins. And the double gate structure is formed on the fin. T...
