Semiconductor device having fin structure that includes dummy fins
View Patent ↗A semiconductor device includes: a substrate, a fin-shaped structure on the substrate, and a dummy fin-shaped structure on the substrate and adjacent to the fin-shaped structure. Preferably, the fin-shaped structure includes a gate structure thereon and a first epitaxial layer adjacent to two sides of the gate structure, and the dummy fin-shaped structure includes a second epitaxial layer thereon. A contact plug is disposed on the first epitaxial layer and the second epitaxial layer.
1. A semiconductor device, comprising:
a substrate;
a fin-shaped structure on the substrate, wherein the fin-shaped structure comprises a gate structure thereon and a first epitaxial layer adjacent to two sides of the gate structure;
a dummy fin-shaped structure on the substrate and adjacent to the fin-shaped structure, wherein the dummy fin-shaped structure comprises a second epitaxial layer thereon; and
a contact plug on the first epitaxial layer and the second epitaxial layer.
2. The semiconductor device of claim 1 , further comprising:
a silicide on the first epitaxial layer and the second epitaxial layer; and
a contact plug on the silicide.
3. The semiconductor device of claim 1 , wherein the first epitaxial layer and the second epitaxial layer comprise silicon germanium or silicon phosphorus.
4. The semiconductor device of claim 1 , wherein the second epitaxial layer covers the dummy fin-shaped structure entirely.
