Abstract

See full text

A method of manufacturing a dual-gate FinFET is provided. The method includes: forming a fin structure on the semiconductor substrate, depositing an oxide layer and planarizing until the top of the fin structure is exposed, depositing a hard mask layer and patterning, preforming a first etch back process to one side of the oxide layer, and then removing the rest of the hard mask layer, preforming a second etch back process to the oxide layers at both sides of the fin structure simultaneously, forming a gate dielectric layer on surface of the fin structure, then depositing gate material on the gate dielectric layer and patterning, removing gate material on top of the fin structure, forming a drive gate and a control gate at two sides of the fin structure respectively; wherein height of the control gate is higher than height of the drive gate.
