    Abstract: Disclosed semiconductor structures include semiconductor fin(s), each extending from a semiconductor substrate and having opposing sidewalls. Each fin has a lower portion and an upper portion above the lower portion. The lower portion has a base proximal to the semiconductor substrate and divots within the opposing sidewalls at the base. An isolation region is on the semiconductor substrate adjacent to the opposing sidewalls of each fin (e.g., including within the divots). The upper portion of each fin extends above the level of the top surface of the isolation region and can be incorporated into a single-fin or multi-fin fin-type device (e.g., a fin-type field effect transistor (FINFET)). In some embodiments, multiple single-fin and/or multi-fin FINFETs incorporating the upper portions of such fins can be incorporated into a memory cell, such as a static random access memory (SRAM) cell. Also disclosed herein are associated method embodiments.
