Abstract
A method for manufacturing a FinFET includes forming a merging spacer, through a plurality of sidewall pattern-transferring processes, and modifying a first interval between adjacent first mandrels as shorter than twice of thicknesses of a nitride layer, which is formed on the first mandrels and contoured thereto, followed by a first spacer being formed on a sidewall thereof, so that a FinFET composed of a plurality of fin-shaped structures having a non-integral multiple of pitches as well as an integral multiple of pitches can be manufactured.
