Abstract
A resistive material is formed straddling over each semiconductor fin that extends upward from a surface of a substrate. The resistive material is then disconnected by removing the resistive material from atop each semiconductor fin. Remaining resistive material in the form of a U-shaped resistive material liner is present between each semiconductor fin. Contact structures are formed perpendicular to each semiconductor fin and contacting a portion of a first set of the semiconductor fins and a first set of the U-shaped resistive material liners.
