Abstract

A method of forming features of a finFET structure includes forming fins on a surface of a substrate. A first liner is formed around each fin and a shallow trench isolation region is formed around each fin. A dopant layer is implanted in each fin. A portion of the shallow trench isolation region is etched from each fin. A first portion of the structure is blocked and the first liner replaced with a second liner in a second portion of the structure.
