Abstract
A semiconductor cell includes a substrate and an array of at least five substantially parallel fins having substantially equal fin widths disposed on the substrate. The array includes a predetermined minimum spacing distance between at least one pair of adjacent fins within the array. The array has a first n-type fin for an n-type semiconductor device, and a first p-type fin for a p-type semiconductor device. The first p-type fin is disposed adjacent the first n-type fin and spaced a predetermined first n-to-p distance apart from the first n-type fin. The first n-to-p distance is greater than the minimum spacing distance and less than the sum of the fin width plus twice the minimum spacing distance.
