Abstract

See full text

A vertical fin field effect transistor (V-FinFET) is provided as follows. A substrate has a lower source/drain (S/D). A fin structure extends vertically from an upper surface of the lower S/D. The fin structure includes a sidewall having an upper sidewall portion, a lower sidewall portion and a center sidewall portion positioned therebetween. An upper S/D is disposed on an upper surface of the fin structure. An upper spacer is disposed on the upper sidewall portion. A lower spacer is disposed on the lower sidewall portion. A stacked structure including a gate oxide layer and a first gate electrode is disposed on an upper surface of the lower spacer, the center sidewall portion and a lower surface of the upper spacer. A second gate electrode is disposed on the first gate electrode.
