    摘要: A method of fabricating a semiconductor device is described. A plurality of semiconductor fins is formed in a first region on a substrate. An isolation region is formed around the plurality of semiconductor fins. Dummy fins are formed extending above the isolation region and laterally adjacent the plurality of semiconductor fins. A first etch is performed to etch the plurality of semiconductor fins such that a top surface of the plurality of semiconductor fins has a same height as a top surface of the isolation region. A second etch is performed selectively etching the isolation region to form a first recess in the isolation region laterally adjacent the semiconductor fins. A third etch is performed selectively etching the plurality of semiconductor fins to remove the plurality of semiconductor fins and to etch a second recess through the isolation region into the semiconductor substrate.
