Abstract

A method of forming a Fin-FET is provided. A substrate is provided, then a mask layer is formed thereabove. A first trench is formed in the substrate and the mask layer. A semiconductor layer is formed in the first trench. Next, the mask layer is removed such that the semi-conductive layer becomes a fin structure embedded in the substrate and protruded above the substrate. Finally, a gate layer is formed on the fin structure.
