Abstract

A method of forming a vertical transport fin field effect transistor with self-aligned dielectric separators, including, forming a bottom source/drain region on a substrate, forming at least two vertical fins on the bottom source/drain region, forming a protective spacer on the at least two vertical fins, forming a sacrificial liner on the protective spacer, forming an isolation channel in the bottom source/drain region and substrate between two of the at least two vertical fins, forming an insulating plug in the isolation channel, wherein the insulating plug has a pinch-off void within the isolation channel, and forming the dielectric separator on the insulating plug.
