Abstract

A method for forming a three dimensional device. The method may include directing ions to an end surface of an extension region of a fin structure, the fin structure extending perpendicularly from a substrate plane and having a fin axis parallel to the substrate plane, wherein the ions have trajectories extending in a plane perpendicular to the substrate plane and parallel to the fin axis, wherein a portion of the fin structure is covered by a gate structure defining a channel region, and wherein the end surface is not covered by the gate structure.
