Abstract:
An integrated circuit device includes a semiconductor substrate, and a semiconductor strip extending into the semiconductor substrate. A first and a second dielectric region are on opposite sides of, and in contact with, the semiconductor strip. Each of the first dielectric region and the second dielectric region includes a first portion level with the semiconductor strip, and a second portion lower than the semiconductor strip. The second portion further includes a portion overlapped by the semiconductor strip.

Claim (Index 1):
A device comprising:\n a semiconductor substrate comprising a bulk portion; a semiconductor strip overlapping the bulk portion; a first dielectric region and a second dielectric region on opposite sides of, and in contact with sidewalls of, the semiconductor strip, wherein each of the first dielectric region and the second dielectric region comprises:\n a first portion having an edge contacting an edge of the semiconductor strip; and \n a second portion lower than the semiconductor strip, wherein the second portion further comprises a portion overlapped by the semiconductor strip; and \n a third dielectric region and a fourth dielectric region connecting to opposite ends of both of the first dielectric region and the second dielectric region.
