Abstract:
A method of forming a vertical fin field effect transistor with a self-aligned gate structure, comprising forming a plurality of vertical fins on a substrate, forming gate dielectric layers on opposite sidewalls of each vertical fin, forming a gate fill layer between the vertical fins, forming a fin-cut mask layer on the gate fill layer, forming one or more fin-cut mask trench(es) in the fin-cut mask layer, and removing portions of the gate fill layer and vertical fins not covered by the fin-cut mask layer to form one or more fin trench(es), and two or more vertical fin segments from each of the plurality of vertical fins, having a separation distance, D 1 , between two vertical fin segments.

Claim (Index 14):
A vertical fin field effect transistor (vertical finFET) with a self-aligned gate structure, comprising:\n two or more vertical fin segments formed in a column on a substrate, wherein there is a separation distance, D 1 , between each of the two or more vertical fin segments in the column; one or more doped region segments formed in the substrate beneath each of the two or more vertical fin segments; a doped layer on the end wall of each of the two or more vertical fin segments separated by distance, D 1 ; and a dielectric fill in the one or more fin trench(es) between the doped layers on the adjacent vertical fin segments.
