Patent 7416925 was granted and assigned to Advanced Micro Devices on August, 2008 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
A semiconductor device includes a substrate and an insulating layer on the substrate. The semiconductor device also includes a fin structure formed on the insulating layer, where the fin structure includes first and second side surfaces, a dielectric layer formed on the first and second side surfaces of the fin structure, a first gate electrode formed adjacent the dielectric layer on the first side surface of the fin structure, a second gate electrode formed adjacent the dielectric layer on the second side surface of the fin structure, and a doped structure formed on an upper surface of the fin structure in the channel region of the semiconductor device.
