Abstract:
Embodiments of the invention are directed to a method of fabricating a semiconductor device. A non-limiting example of the method includes performing fabrication operations to form a nanosheet field effect transistor device, wherein the fabrication operations include forming a stack over a substrate. The stack includes alternating layers of sacrificial nanosheets and channel nanosheets over a substrate. The stack further includes lateral sidewalls having a length (L) and end sidewalls having a width (W), wherein L is greater than W. Source or drain (S/D) regions are formed along the length (L) of the lateral sidewalls.

Claim (Index 6):
The method of  claim 5 , wherein the stack comprises an elongated, fin-shaped structure.
