ABSTRACT:
Methods for fabricating Fin-Field Effect Transistors (Fin-FETs) are provided. A fin is formed on an integrated circuit substrate. The fin defines a trench on the integrated circuit substrate. A first insulation layer is formed in the trench such that a surface of the first insulation layer is recessed beneath a surface of the fin exposing sidewalls of the fin. A protection layer is formed on the first insulation layer and a second insulation layer is formed on the protection layer in the trench such that protection layer is between the second insulation layer and the sidewalls of the fin. Related Fin-FETs are also provided.
