Abstract
A fin field effect transistor device structure includes a fin structure formed over a substrate. The structure also includes a liner layer and an isolation structure surrounding the fin structure. The structure also includes a gate dielectric layer formed over the fin structure and the isolation structure. The structure also includes a gate structure formed over the gate dielectric layer. The structure also includes source/drain epitaxial structures formed on opposite sides of the gate structure. The fin structure includes a protruding portion laterally extending over the liner layer.
