Abstract
A semiconductor device with different isolation structures and a method of fabricating the same are disclosed. The a method includes forming first and second fin structures on a substrate, forming a dummy fin structure on the substrate and between the first and second fin structures, forming a polysilicon structure on the dummy fin structure, forming source/drain regions on the first and second fin structures, and replacing the polysilicon structure with a dummy gate structure. A top portion of the dummy gate structure is formed wider than a bottom portion of the dummy gate structure.
