Patent ID: 10134734

Abstract:
Fin Field Effect Transistor (FET) (FinFET) complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) circuits with single and double diffusion breaks for increased performance are disclosed. In one aspect, a FinFET CMOS circuit employing single and double diffusion breaks includes a P-type FinFET that includes a first Fin formed from a semiconductor substrate and corresponding to a P-type diffusion region. The FinFET CMOS circuit includes an N-type FinFET that includes a second Fin formed from the semiconductor substrate and corresponding to an N-type diffusion region. To electrically isolate the P-type FinFET, first and second single diffusion break (SDB) isolation structures are formed in the first Fin on either side of a gate of the P-type FinFET. To electrically isolate the N-type FinFET, first and second double diffusion break (DDB) isolation structures are formed in the second Fin on either side of a gate of the N-type FinFET.
