SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE AND MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREOF - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18362862 titled 'SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE AND MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREOF

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a semiconductor device that includes several components: a substrate, a semiconductor fin, a shallow trench isolation (STI) structure, an air spacer, and a gate structure.

  • The semiconductor fin is a structure that extends upwardly from the substrate.
  • The STI structure surrounds the lower portion of the semiconductor fin in a lateral manner.
  • An air spacer is positioned between the STI structure and the semiconductor fin.
  • The gate structure extends across the semiconductor fin.
  • The purpose of this semiconductor device is not explicitly mentioned in the abstract.


Original Abstract Submitted

A semiconductor device includes a substrate, a semiconductor fin, a shallow trench isolation (STI) structure, an air spacer, and a gate structure. The semiconductor fin extends upwardly from the substrate. The STI structure laterally surrounds a lower portion of the semiconductor fin. The air spacer is interposed the STI structure and the semiconductor fin. The gate structure extends across the semiconductor fin.
