Abstract:
A method includes forming an insulating structure over a substrate, wherein the substrate has a semiconductor fin separated from the insulating structure; depositing a high-κ dielectric layer over the semiconductor fin and a sidewall of the insulating structure facing the semiconductor fin; etching a first portion of the high-κ dielectric layer over the sidewall of the insulating structure, wherein a second portion of the high-κ dielectric layer remains over the semiconductor fin; and depositing a gate electrode over the second portion of the high-κ dielectric layer.

Claim (Index 17):
The method of  claim 16 , further comprising:\n etching a portion of the dielectric layer over the sidewall of the insulating structure, wherein depositing the gate electrode is performed such that the gate electrode is in contact with the sidewall of the insulating structure.
