Abstract:
A strip made of a semiconductor material is formed over a substrate. Longitudinal portions of the strip having a same length are covered with sacrificial gates made of an insulating material and spaced apart from each other. Non-covered portions of the strip are doped to form source/drain regions. An insulating layer followed by a layer of a temporary material is then deposited. Certain ones of the sacrificial gates are left in place. Certain other ones of the sacrificial gates are replaced by a metal gate structure. The temporary material is then replaced with a conductive material to form contacts to the source/drain regions.

Claim (Index 18):
An integrated circuit, comprising:\n a substrate; a strip made of a semiconductor material extending over the substrate; wherein first portions of said strip that are spaced apart from each other are covered by a gate insulator material and by a metal; wherein second portions of said strip positioned between first portions are doped to form source and drain regions; wherein said strip further includes non-doped portions which separate groups of first and second portions from each other, each group defining a transistor or a groups of electrically connected transistors; and layers of insulating material covering said non-doped portions of the strip so as to electrically isolate the transistor or electrically connected transistors from one another.
