Abstract
A method of forming a transistor having a gate electrode includes forming a sacrificial layer over a semiconductor substrate, forming a patterning layer over the sacrificial layer, patterning the patterning layer to form patterned structures, forming spacers adjacent to sidewalls of the patterned structures, removing the patterned structures, etching through the sacrificial layer using the spacers as an etching mask and etching into the semiconductor substrate, thereby forming trenches in the semiconductor substrate, and filling a conductive material in the trenches in the semiconductor substrate to form the gate electrode.
