Abstract
Structures for a single diffusion break and methods of forming a structure for a single diffusion break. A cut is formed in a semiconductor fin. A single diffusion break includes a first dielectric layer in the cut and a second dielectric layer over the first dielectric layer. The first dielectric layer is comprised of a first material, and the second dielectric layer is comprised of a second material having a different composition than the first material. The second dielectric layer includes a first portion over the first dielectric layer and a second portion over the first portion. The first portion of the second dielectric layer has a first horizontal dimension, and the second portion of the second dielectric layer has a second horizontal dimension that is greater than the first horizontal dimension.
