  • Publication number: 20220376116
    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a substrate having a recess therein that is partially filled with at least two semiconductor active regions. The recess has sidewalls and a bottom that are sufficiently lined with corresponding substrate insulating layers that the at least two semiconductor active regions are electrically isolated from the substrate, which surrounds the sidewalls and bottom of the recess. A sidewall insulating layer is provided, which extends as a partition between first and second ones of the at least two semiconductor active regions, such that the first and second ones of the at least two semiconductor active regions are electrically isolated from each other. First and second gate electrodes are provided in the first and second active regions, respectively.
