Abstract
This disclosure relates to the technical field of semiconductors, and discloses a method for manufacturing semiconductor FinFET devices. The method particularly includes pre-removal of a predetermined thickness of a first region of an isolation region on sides of a fin that is not covered by a pseudo gate such that when a layer of second region of the isolation region covered by the pseudo gate is sacrificially removed during a removal of the pseudo gate, the upper surfaces of the remaining first region and the remaining second region of the isolation region are approximately leveled. By using such a method, DC and AC performances of a resulting FinFET device is improved.
