Patent 11843056 was granted and assigned to Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company on December, 2023 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
A semiconductor structure is provided. The semiconductor structure may include a transistor structure, the transistor structure may include a gate region arranged over an upper surface of a substrate and extending substantially in a first direction that is perpendicular to the upper surface of the substrate; a first source/drain region over the upper surface of the substrate; a second source/drain region over the upper surface of the substrate; and a channel region vertically extending in the first direction between the first source/drain region and the second source/drain region, wherein the channel region comprises an oxide semiconductor material. Along the first direction, the gate region covers a sidewall of the channel region.
