A method for forming a FinFET transistor structure includes providing a substrate with a buried oxide layer and a layer of first semiconductor material. One or more fin structures are formed on the first layer of semiconductor material using a hard mask layer. Sidewall spacers are formed on sidewalls of the fin structures and the hard mask layer. An angled oxygen ion implantation is carried out using the hard mask and side walls as the mask. Next, an annealing process is performed to form oxide diffusion regions. Then, the oxide diffusion regions are removed, and the exposed first semiconductor material layer is etched to expose portions of the buried oxide layer. The resulting fin structure has recessed regions formed on the sidewalls, and the fin structure has a bottom portion below the recessed regions that is wider than a top portion.
