Zusammenfassung:A method for controlling the gate length within a FinFET device to increase power performance and the resulting device are provided. Embodiments include forming a vertical gate to extend over a plurality of fins; depositing a respective oxide layer over each of a plurality of skirt regions formed at respective points of intersection of the vertical gate with the plurality of fins; and oxidizing each oxide layer to form a plurality of oxidized gate skirts.
