Abstract
A variety of applications can include apparatus having a recessed channel FinFET. The recessed channel FinFET can include one or more fin structures between the source region and the drain region, where the one or more fin structures are recessed from a top level of the source region and from a top level of the drain region. The recessed channel FinFET can include a gate recessed from the top level of a source region and a drain region, where the gate can be separated from tip regions of the fin structures by a gate dielectric defining a channel between the source region and the drain region. Recessed channel FinFETs can be structured in a periphery to an array of a memory device and can be fabricated in a process merged with forming access lines to the array.
