ABSTRACT:
A method for forming a contact to a semiconductor fin which can be carried out by first providing a semiconductor fin that has a top surface, two sidewall surfaces and at least one end surface; forming an etch stop layer overlying the fin; forming a passivation layer overlying the etch stop layer; forming a contact hole in the passivation layer exposing the etch stop layer; removing the etch stop layer in the contact hole; and filling the contact hole with an electrically conductive material.
