Abstract

A method of fabricating a semiconductor device is disclosed. The method includes forming a dielectric layer over a substrate, forming a hard mask (HM) layer over the dielectric layer, forming a fin trench through the HM layer and the dielectric layer and extending down to the substrate, forming a semiconductor feature in the fin trench and removing the HM layer to expose an upper portion of the semiconductor feature to form fin features.
