Abstract

A method of fabricating a fin field effect transistor including providing a substrate having at least one fin structure, a dummy gate, and an internal dielectric layer thereon, removing the dummy gate to form a gate trench on the fin structure, blanketly forming a stress film on the substrate to cover a surface of the gate trench, performing a thermal annealing process, removing the stress film, and forming a metal gate is in the gate trench.
