US Patent 10381346 Logic gate designs for 3D monolithic direct stacked VTFET

Logic gate designs (e.g., NAND, NOR, Inverter) for stacked VTFET designs are provided. In one aspect, a logic gate device is provided. The logic gate device includes: at least one top vertical transport field-effect transistor (VTFET1) sharing a fin with at least one bottom VTFET (VTFET2); a power rail connected to a power contact of the logic gate device; and a ground rail, adjacent to the power rail, connected to a ground contact of the logic gate device. A method of forming a logic gate device is also provided.
