Patent ID: 10971585

Abstract:
Embodiments of the invention are directed to a nano sheet semiconductor device fabrication method that includes forming a gate spacer along a gate region of the nanosheet FET device. Channel nanosheet is formed such that each one has a desired final channel nanosheet width dimension (Wf). An inner spacer is formed between the channel nanosheets. Forming the gate spacer and the inner spacer includes, subsequent to forming the channel nanosheets to the desired Wf, conformally depositing a layer of the spacer material along a sidewall of the gate region, along sidewalls of the channel nanosheets, and within a space between the channel nanosheets. The gate spacer is formed from a portion of the layer of the spacer material along the sidewall of the gate region. The inner spacer is formed from a portion of the layer of the spacer material within the space between the channel nanosheets.
