Patent attributes
A field effect transistor (FET) structure upon a substrate formed by forming a stack of nanosheets upon a semiconductor substrate, the stack including alternating layers of a compound semiconductor material and an elemental semiconductor material, forming a dummy gate structure upon the stack of nanosheets, recessing the stack of nanosheets in alignment with the dummy gate structure, recessing the compound semiconductor layers beyond the edges of the dummy gate, yielding indentations between adjacent semiconductor nanosheets. Further by filling the indentations with a bi-layer dielectric material, epitaxially growing source/drain regions adjacent to the nanosheet stack and bi-layer dielectric material, removing remaining portions of the compound semiconductor nanosheet layers, recessing the bi-layer dielectric material to expose an inner material layer, and forming gate structure layers in contact with first and second dielectric materials of the bi-layer dielectric material.
