Semiconductor device having vertically aligned pillar structures that have flat side surfaces and method for manufacturing the same

摘要

A semiconductor device having vertically aligned transistors made from pillar structures that have flat side surfaces is presented. The semiconductor device includes a semiconductor substrate, spacers, and gates. The semiconductor substrate has pillar structures that have flat side surfaces. The spacers are on sidewalls only on the upper portions of the pillar structures. The gates surround lower portions of the pillar structures.
