Abstract:
A FinFET device and a method of forming the same are provided. A method includes forming a patterned mask stack over a substrate, features of the patterned mask stack protecting the substrate having a uniform width. Unprotected portions of the substrate exposed by the patterned mask stack are removed to form a plurality of recesses in the substrate, unremoved portions of the substrate interposed between adjacent recesses forming a plurality of fins. Portions of the plurality of fins are removed, a width of a first fin of the plurality of fins being less than a width of a second fin of the plurality of fins.

Claim (Index 8):
A structure comprising:\n a semiconductor base structure; a first semiconductor fin extending away from a top surface of the semiconductor base structure, the first semiconductor fin having a first height, the first semiconductor fin having a first faceted top surface; a second semiconductor fin extending away from the top surface of the semiconductor base structure, the second semiconductor fin being adjacent the first semiconductor fin, the second semiconductor fin having a second height, the second semiconductor fin having a second faceted top surface; and a third semiconductor fin extending away from the top surface of the semiconductor base structure, the third semiconductor fin being interposed between the first semiconductor fin and the second semiconductor fin, the third semiconductor fin having a third height, the third height being less than or equal to the first height and the second height.
