Abstract: The present invention provides a semiconductor FET and a method for manufacturing the same. The semiconductor FET may comprise: a gate wall; a fin outside the gate wall, both ends of the fin being connected with the source/drain regions on both ends of the fin; and a contact wall on both sides of the gate wall, the contact wall being connected with the source/drain regions via the underlying silicide layer, wherein an airgap is provided around the gate wall. Since an airgap is formed around the gate wall, and particularly the airgap is formed between the gate wall and the contact wall, it is possible to decrease the parasitic capacitance between the gate wall and the contact wall. As a result, the problem of excessive parasitic capacitance resulting from use of the contact wall can be effectively alleviated.

Abstract: A method for improving the within die uniformity of the metal plug CMP process in the gate last route is provided. Before performing the CMP process for forming the metal plug, a metal etching process is applied, so that the step height between the metal layers in the contact hole area and the non-contact hole area is greatly reduced. Therefore, the relatively small step height will exert a significantly less effect on the following CMP process, so that the step height will be limitedly transferred to the top of metal plug after finishing CMP process. In this way, the recess on top of the metal plug is largely reduced, so that a flat top of the metal plug is obtained, and within die uniformity and electrical properties the device are improved.
