Abstract

Methods of forming a CT pillar with reduced width and increased distance from neighboring fins and the resulting devices are provided. Embodiments include providing a first pair of fins and a second pair of fins in an oxide layer, wherein the first and second pair of fins include Si; and forming a CT pillar including SiN between the first and second pair of fins and over a portion of the oxide layer, wherein width of the CT pillar and distance between the CT pillar and the first and second pair of fins are inversely proportional.
