Patent abstract
A fin-type field effect transistor (FinFET) has a fin having a center channel portion, end portions comprising source and drain regions, and channel extensions extending from sidewalls of the channel portion of the fin. The structure also includes a gate insulator covering the channel portion and the channel extensions, and a gate conductor on the gate insulator. The channel extensions increase capacitance of the channel portion of the fin.
