Abstract: A device and method for integrated circuits with surrounding gate structures are disclosed. The device includes a semiconductor substrate and a fin structure on the semiconductor substrate. The fin structure is doped with a first conductivity type and includes a source region at one distal end and a drain region at the opposite distal end. The device further includes a gate structure overlying a channel region disposed between the source and drain regions of the fin structure. The fin structure has a rectangular cross-sectional bottom portion and an arched cross-sectional top portion. The arched cross-sectional top portion is semi-circular shaped and has a radius that is equal to or smaller than the height of the rectangular cross-sectional bottom portion. The source, drain, and the channel regions each are doped with dopants of the same polarity and the same concentration.
