    摘要: A sacrificial gate stack for forming a nanosheet transistor includes a substrate. first, second and third silicon channel nanosheets formed over the substrate, and a first sandwich of germanium (Ge) containing layers disposed between the substrate and first silicon channel nanosheet. The stack also includes a second sandwich of Ge containing layers disposed between the first silicon channel nanosheet and the second silicon channel nanosheet; and a third sandwich of Ge containing layers disposed between the second silicon channel nanosheet and the third silicon channel nanosheet. Each sandwich includes first and second low Ge containing layers surrounding a silicon germanium (SiGe) sacrificial nanosheet that has a higher Ge concentration than the first and second low Ge containing layers.

    摘要: A method of fabricating air gap spacers is provided. The method includes forming gate structures to extend upwardly from a substrate with source or drain (S/D) regions disposed between the gate structures and with contact trenches defined above the S/D regions and between the gate structures. The method further includes disposing contacts in the contact trenches. The method also includes configuring the contacts to define open-ended air gap spacer trenches with the gate structures. In addition, the method includes forming a cap over the open-ended air gap spacer trenches to define the open-ended air gap spacer trenches as air gap spacers. The gate structures have an initial structure prior to and following the disposing and the configuring of the contacts and prior to and following the forming of the cap.
