Abstract
A semiconductor structure and a method for forming the same are provided. One form of a semiconductor structure includes: a substrate including a device unit region, where the device unit region includes a first sub-unit region configured to form a first device and a second sub-unit region configured to form a second device, where a driving current of the first device is greater than a driving current of the second device; a fin protruding from the substrate; a first gate spanning the fin in the first sub-unit region; and a second gate spanning the fin in the second sub-unit region. In some implementations, the second sub-unit region is disposed in the device unit region, and the second device generates less heat than the first device. Therefore, compared with a solution in which the device unit region includes only a first device region, overall heat from the device unit region can be reduced, thus ameliorating a self-heating effect in the device unit region and enhancing the performance of semiconductors.
