Abstract

A semiconductor structure comprises a semiconductor substrate and a shallow trench isolation (STI) feature over the substrate. The STI feature includes first and second portions. A top surface of the first portion is lower than a top surface of the second portion. The semiconductor structure further comprises fin active regions; conductive features on the fin active regions and the STI feature; and dielectric features separating the conductive features from the fin active regions. The semiconductor structure further comprises a first gate stack having a first one of the dielectric features and a first one of the conductive features overlying the first one of the dielectric features; and a second gate stack having a second one of the dielectric features and a second one of the conductive features overlying the second one of the dielectric features.
