Abstract: Dual self-aligned gate endcap (SAGE) architectures, and methods of fabricating dual self-aligned gate endcap (SAGE) architectures, are described. In an example, an integrated circuit structure includes a first semiconductor fin having a cut along a length of the first semiconductor fin. A second semiconductor fin is parallel with the first semiconductor fin. A first gate endcap isolation structure is between the first semiconductor fin and the second semiconductor fin. A second gate endcap isolation structure is in a location of the cut along the length of the first semiconductor fin.

Abstract: Unidirectional self-aligned gate endcap (SAGE) architectures with gate-orthogonal walls, and methods of fabricating unidirectional self-aligned gate endcap (SAGE) architectures with gate-orthogonal walls, are described. In an example, integrated circuit structure includes a first semiconductor fin having a cut along a length of the first semiconductor fin. A second semiconductor fin has a cut along a length of the second semiconductor fin. A gate endcap isolation structure is between the first semiconductor fin and the second semiconductor fin. The gate endcap isolation structure has a substantially uniform width along the lengths of the first and second semiconductor fins.

Abstract: Self-aligned gate endcap (SAGE) architectures having gate endcap plugs or contact endcap plugs, or both gate endcap plugs and contact endcap plugs, and methods of fabricating SAGE architectures having such endcap plugs, are described. In an example, a first gate structure is over a first of a plurality of semiconductor fins. A second gate structure is over a second of the plurality of semiconductor fins. A first gate endcap isolation structure is laterally between and in contact with the first gate structure and the second gate structure and has an uppermost surface co-planar with an uppermost surface of the first gate structure and the second gate structure. A second gate endcap isolation structure is laterally between and in contact with first and second lateral portions of the first gate structure and has an uppermost surface below an uppermost surface of the first gate structure.
