摘要:
A FinFET-type semiconductor device includes a fin structure on which a relatively thin amorphous silicon layer and then an undoped polysilicon layer is formed. The semiconductor device may be planarized using a chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) in which the amorphous silicon layer acts as a stop layer to prevent damage to the fin structure.
