Abstract: Methods for isolating two adjacent transistors are disclosed. A substrate has a first semiconducting fin on a first region and a second semiconducting fin on a second region, and the first semiconducting fin and the second semiconducting fin contact each other at a jog region.

The trench and the isolation volume are filled with at least one dielectric material to form an electrically isolating structure between the first region and the second region. Additional dummy gates in each region can be removed and replaced with an electrically conductive material to form two adjacent transistors electrically isolated from each other.
