Abstract:
A FinFET structure with a gate structure having two notch features therein and a method of forming the same is disclosed. The FinFET notch features ensure that sufficient spacing is provided between the gate structure and source/drain regions of the FinFET to avoid inadvertent shorting of the gate structure to the source/drain regions. Gate structures of different sizes (e.g., different gate widths) and of different pattern densities can be provided on a same substrate and avoid inadvertent of shorting the gate to the source/drain regions through application of the notched features.

Claim (Index 6):
The FinFET device of  claim 5 , wherein the gate oxide layer comprises a material selected from a group consisted of hafnium oxide, titanium nitride, silicon dioxide, silicon nitride, silicon oxynitride, and a combination thereof.
