Abstract: The surface area of a surface area-dependent semiconductor device is increased by providing a dielectric layer, removing portion(s) of the dielectric layer, resulting in recession(s), and forming surface area-dependent semiconductor device(s), a portion of the device being formed along a sidewall of one, or more, of the recession(s). The resulting semiconductor structure includes a dielectric layer having recession(s) therein, and surface area-dependent semiconductor device(s) having a portion thereof formed along a sidewall of the recession(s).

Abstract: Semiconductor devices and methods of fabricating the semiconductor devices with chamfer-less via multi-patterning are disclosed. One method includes, for instance: obtaining an intermediate semiconductor device; performing a trench etch into a portion of the intermediate semiconductor device to form a trench pattern; depositing an etching stack; performing at least one via patterning process; and forming at least one via opening into a portion of the intermediate semiconductor device. An intermediate semiconductor device is also disclosed.
