Abstract: A vertical FinFET includes a semiconductor fin formed over a semiconductor substrate. A self-aligned first source/drain contact is electrically separated from a second source/drain contact by a spacer layer that is formed over an endwall of the fin. The spacer layer, which comprises a dielectric material, allows the self-aligned first source/drain contact to be located in close proximity to an endwall of the fin and the associated second source/drain contact without risk of an electrical short between the adjacent contacts.

Abstract: A method of forming a logic or memory cell with less than or equal to 0 nm of TS extending past the active fins and the resulting device are provided. Embodiments include forming gates across pairs of fins on a substrate; forming pairs of RSD between the gates on the fins; forming a planar SAC cap on each of the gates; forming a metal layer over the substrate coplanar with the SACs; forming a TS structure in the metal layer over the fins, the TS structure formed over the pairs of RSD, each upper portion having a width equal to or less than an overall width of a pair of fins; forming spacers on opposite sides of the upper portions; removing the metal layer between adjacent spacers; forming an ILD over the substrate; and forming a CA on each upper portion and a CB on a gate through the ILD.
