Abstract
A method of forming a semiconductor device includes: forming semiconductor fin structures over a substrate, where each of the semiconductor fin structures includes a layer stack over a semiconductor fin, the layer stack including alternating layers of a first semiconductor material and a second semiconductor material; forming a capping layer over sidewalls and upper surfaces of the semiconductor fin structures; and forming hybrid fins over isolation regions on opposing sides of the semiconductor fin structures, where forming the hybrid fins includes: forming dielectric fins over the isolation regions; and forming dielectric structures over the dielectric fins, which includes: forming an etch stop layer (ESL) over the dielectric fins; doping the ESL with a dopant; and forming a first dielectric material over the doped ESL.
