    Abstract: Disclosed is a lateral double-diffused metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (LDMOSFET) with a replacement metal gate (RMG) structure that includes a first section, which traverses a semiconductor body at a channel region in a first-type well, and a second section, which is adjacent to the first section and which traverses the semiconductor body at a drain drift region in a second-type well. The RMG structure includes, in both sections, a first-type work function layer and a second-type work function layer on the first-type work function layer. However, the thickness of the first-type work function layer in the first section is greater than the thickness in the second section such that the RMG structure is asymmetric. Thus, threshold voltage (Vt) at the first section is greater than Vt at the second section and the LDMOSFET has a relatively high breakdown voltage (BV). Also disclosed are methods for forming the LDMOSFET.

    Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to semiconductor structures and, more particularly, to single fin structures and methods of manufacture. The structure includes: an active single fin structure; a plurality of dummy fin structures on opposing sides of the active single fin structure; source and drain regions formed on the active single fin structure and the dummy fin structures; recessed shallow trench isolation (STI) regions between the dummy fin structures and the active single fin structure and below a surface of the dummy fin structures; and contacts formed on the source and drain regions of the active single fin structure with a spacing of at least two dummy fin structures on opposing sides of the contacts.
