Abstract:
A method includes forming a semiconductor fin extending a first height above a substrate, forming a dummy dielectric material over the semiconductor fin and over the substrate, forming a dummy gate material over the dummy dielectric material, the dummy gate material extending a second height above the substrate, etching the dummy gate material using multiple etching processes to form a dummy gate stack, wherein each etching process of the multiple etching processes is a different etching process, wherein the dummy gate stack has a first width at the first height, and wherein the dummy gate stack has a second width at the second height that is different from the first width.
