Abstract
The present disclosure provides fin field-effect transistors and fabrication methods thereof. An exemplary fabrication process includes providing a substrate having a first region and a second region; forming first fins in the first region and second fins in the second region; forming a liner oxide layer on side surfaces of the first fins, the second fins and a surface of the substrate; forming an insulating barrier layer on the liner oxide layer in the first region; forming a precursor material layer on the insulating barrier layer in the first region and on the liner oxide layer in the second region; performing a curing annealing process to convert the precursor material into an insulation layer; and removing a top portion of the insulation layer to form an isolating layer and removing portions of the liner oxide layer, the insulating barrier layer, the first oxide layer and the second oxide layer.
