Abstract
Self-aligned gate edge trigate and finFET devices and methods of fabricating self-aligned gate edge trigate and finFET devices are described. In an example, a semiconductor structure includes a plurality of semiconductor fins disposed above a substrate and protruding through an uppermost surface of a trench isolation region. A gate structure is disposed over the plurality of semiconductor fins. The gate structure defines a channel region in each of the plurality of semiconductor fins. Source and drain regions are on opposing ends of the channel regions of each of the plurality of semiconductor fins, at opposing sides of the gate structure. The semiconductor structure also includes a plurality of gate edge isolation structures. Individual ones of the plurality of gate edge isolation structures alternate with individual ones of the plurality of semiconductor fins.
