Abstract

A semiconductor structure and a method of forming the same are provided. In an embodiment, an exemplary semiconductor structure includes a number of channel members over a substrate, a gate structure wrapping around each of the number of channel members, a dielectric fin structure disposed adjacent to the gate structure, the dielectric fin structure includes a first dielectric layer disposed over the substrate and in direct contact with the first gate structure, a second dielectric layer disposed over the first dielectric layer, and a third dielectric layer. The third dielectric is disposed over the second dielectric layer and spaced apart from the first dielectric layer and the gate structure by the second dielectric layer. The dielectric fin structure also includes an isolation feature disposed directly over the third dielectric layer.
