Abstract:
A semiconductor device includes a substrate; semiconductor fins over the substrate and oriented lengthwise along a first direction; first multi-dielectric-layer (MDL) fins and second MDL fins over the substrate and oriented lengthwise along the first direction, wherein the first and the second MDL fins are intermixed with the semiconductor fins, wherein each of the first MDL fins and the second MDL fins includes an outer dielectric layer and an inner dielectric layer, wherein the outer dielectric layer and the inner dielectric layer have different dielectric materials; and gate structures oriented lengthwise along a second direction generally perpendicular to the first direction, wherein the gate structures are spaced from each other along the first direction, and are separated by the first MDL fins along the second direction, wherein the gate structures engage the semiconductor fins and the second MDL fins.

Claim (Index 12):
The semiconductor device of  claim 1 , further comprising a third MDL fin over the substrate and oriented lengthwise along the first direction, wherein the third MDL fin includes one more dielectric layer than the first and the second MDL fins.
