Abstract
A device includes a substrate including a low-resistance top surface and a fin structure including a first fin and a second fin. Each of the first and second fins includes a low-resistance fin-top surface and two low-resistance sidewall surfaces. The device includes an insulation material over the top surface of the substrate and between the first fin and the second fin. The fin-top surface and a first portion of the sidewall surfaces of each of the first and the second fins are above the insulation material. The device further includes a dielectric layer over the insulation material and in direct contact with the fin-top surface and the first portion of the sidewall surfaces of each of the first and the second fins; a first electrode in direct contact with the fin-top surface of the first fin; and a second electrode over the dielectric layer that is over the second fin.
