Abstract

A method includes forming a first source/drain region and a second source/drain region in a semiconductor fin; depositing a first dielectric layer over the first source/drain region and the second source/drain region; etching an opening through the first dielectric layer, wherein etching the opening comprises etching the first dielectric layer; forming first sidewall spacers on sidewalls of the opening; and forming a gate stack in the opening, wherein the gate stack is disposed between the first sidewall spacers.
