The FinFET structure forms channels in a 'fin' of silicon perpendicular to the wafer surface. The gate is formed on both sides. Progress in FinFET DGCMOS Technology We here briefly summarize some key ...

IMAGE CAPTION: Researchers are making progress in developing new types of transistors, called finFETs, which use a finlike structure instead of the conventional flat design, possibly enabling ...

While the FinFET structure was originally introduced in 2011 and it used vertical fins (like those of a fish) rising from the substrate, the current still flowed laterally to the substrate. The ...

SAN FRANCISCO — The FinFET, a transistor structure with a fin-like semiconductor channel raised vertically out of the silicon surface of an IC that has been touted as the means to scale silicon down ...

TSMC continues utilizing FinFET structure in mass-produced 3nm products in 2H22, which will be officially released in 1H23, with the scale of mass production increasing quarter by quarter.

Finfet technology, with its 3D structure, is seen as the key semiconductor technology for the next generation of deep sub-micron chip design. Leah Schuth describes how physical IP developers will rise ...

To set the stage for the nanosheet, what was the argument in favor of the FinFET in the first place? The nanosheet transistor is really a continuation of the FinFET.

However, attempts to push integration density beyond 3nm are exposing the limits of the FinFET structure. According to the PKU report, the next-generation GAAFET eliminates the foundational "fin ...

This design is a significant departure from the Fin Field-Effect Transistor (FinFET) structure, which has been the industry standard since Intel commercialized it in 2011.

The use of FinFETs and high-k dielectrics has allowed CMOS technology to continue to scale for some time. However, these technologies are not without their limitations. For example, the FinFET ...
