Replacement-channel fabrication of III-V nanosheet devices

Abstract:

Semiconductor devices and methods of forming the same include forming a stack of alternating first and second sacrificial layers. The first sacrificial layers are recessed relative to the second sacrificial layers. Replacement channel layers are grown from sidewalls of the first sacrificial layers. A first source/drain region is grown from the replacement channel layer. The recessed first sacrificial layers are etched away. A second source/drain region is grown from the replacement channel layer. The second sacrificial layers are etched away. A gate stack is formed between and around the replacement channel layers.
