Abstract

A method of manufacturing a FinFET structure involves forming a gate cut within a sacrificial gate layer and backfilling the gate cut opening with etch selective dielectric materials. Partial etching of one of the dielectric materials can be used to increase the distance between the gate cut (isolation) structure and an adjacent fin relative to methods that do not perform a backfilling step using etch selective materials.
