Abstract

A semiconductor device includes a first channel region, a second channel region, and a first insulating fin, the first insulating fin being interposed between the first channel region and the second channel region. The first insulating fin includes a lower portion and an upper portion. The lower portion includes a fill material. The upper portion includes a first dielectric layer on the lower portion, the first dielectric layer being a first dielectric material, a first capping layer on the first dielectric layer, the first capping layer being a second dielectric material, the second dielectric material being different than the first dielectric material, and a second dielectric layer on the first capping layer, the second dielectric layer being the first dielectric material.
