Abstract
A vertical fin-based field effect transistor (FinFET) includes an array of FinFETs comprising a plurality of rows and columns of active fins with source contacts and one or more rows of first inactive fins disposed on a first set of sides of the array of FinFETs. The vertical FinFET also includes one or more columns of second inactive fins disposed on a second set of sides of the array of FinFETs. The first inactive fins and the second inactive fins are characterized by a reduced electrical conductivity compared to an electrical conductivity of the active fins of the array of FinFETs. The vertical FinFET further includes an active gate region surrounding the FinFETs of the array of FinFETs and an additional gate region surrounding the first inactive fins and the second inactive fins. At least a portion of the additional gate region is a neutralized gate region.
