Abstract

A method of forming an asymmetrical three dimensional semiconductor device. The method may include providing a fin structure extending perpendicularly from a substrate plane and having a fin axis parallel to the substrate plane, wherein a portion of the fin structure is covered by a gate structure defining a channel region, and wherein the fin structure comprises a first end surface not covered by the gate structure and second end surface not covered by the gate structure. The method may further include directing ions in a fin treatment to the fin structure, wherein the fin treatment comprises a first treatment of the first end surface and a second treatment of the second end surface different from the first treatment.
