Patent attributes
A structure is provided that includes at least one multilayered stacked semiconductor material structure located on a semiconductor substrate and at least one sacrificial gate material structure straddles a portion of the at least one multilayered stacked semiconductor structure. The at least one multilayered stacked semiconductor material structure includes alternating layers of sacrificial semiconductor material and semiconductor nanowire template material. End segments of each layer of sacrificial semiconductor material are then removed and filled with a dielectric spacer. Source/drain regions are formed from exposed sidewalls of each layer of semiconductor nanowire template material, and thereafter the at least one sacrificial gate material structure and remaining portions of the sacrificial semiconductor material are removed suspending each semiconductor material. A gate structure is formed within the areas previously occupied by the at least one sacrificial gate material structure and remaining portions of the sacrificial semiconductor material.
