    Patent number: 8350253
    Abstract: An integrated circuit (“IC”) fabricated on a semiconductor substrate has an active gate structure formed over a channel region in the semiconductor substrate. A dummy gate structure is formed on a dielectric isolation structure. The dummy gate structure and the active gate structure have the same width. A sidewall spacer on the dummy gate structure overlies a semiconductor portion between a strain-inducing insert and the dielectric isolation structure.
