Abstract:
A method of manufacturing a MOSFET type semiconductor device includes planarizing a gate material layer that is deposited over a channel. The planarization is performed in a multi-step process that includes an initial “rough” planarization and then a “fine” planarization. The slurry used for the finer planarization may include added material that tends to adhere to low areas of the gate material.

Abstract:
A FinFET-type semiconductor device includes a fin structure on which a relatively thin amorphous silicon layer and then an undoped polysilicon layer is formed. The semiconductor device may be planarized using a chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) in which the amorphous silicon layer acts as a stop layer to prevent damage to the fin structure.

Abstract:
A method of forming a semiconductor device includes forming a fin on an insulating layer, where the fin includes a number of side surfaces, a top surface and a bottom surface. The method also includes forming a gate on the insulating layer, where the gate has a substantially U-shaped cross-section at a channel region of the semiconductor device.
Abstract:
A semiconductor device may include a substrate and an insulating layer formed on the substrate. A first device may be formed on the insulating layer, including a first fin. The first fin may be formed on the insulating layer and may have a first fin aspect ratio. A second device may be formed on the insulating layer, including a second fin. The second fin may be formed on the insulating layer and may have a second fin aspect ratio different from the first fin aspect ratio.

Abstract:
A double-gate semiconductor device includes a substrate, an insulating layer, a fin and two gates. The insulating layer is formed on the substrate and the fin is formed on the insulating layer. A first gate is formed on the insulating layer and is adjacent a first sidewall of the fin. The second gate is formed on the insulating layer and is adjacent a second sidewall of the fin opposite the first sidewall. The first and second gates both include a conductive material and are electrically separated by the fin.
