Abstract
The embodiments herein relate to field-effect transistors (FETs) with a gate structure in a dual-depth trench isolation structure and methods of forming the same. The FET includes a substrate having an upper surface, a trench isolation structure, and a gate structure adjacent to the trench isolation structure. The trench isolation structure has a first portion having a lower surface and a second portion having a lower surface in the substrate; the lower surface of the first portion is above the lower surface of the second portion.
