Abstract

A FinFET device structure and method for forming the same are provided. The FinFET device structure includes a stop layer formed over a substrate and a fin structure formed over the stop layer. The FinFET device structure includes a gate structure formed over the fin structure and a source/drain (S/D) structure adjacent to the gate structure. A bottom surface of the S/D structure is located at a position that is higher than or level with a bottom surface of the stop layer.
