Abstract

Structures for spacers in a device structure for a field-effect transistor and methods for forming spacers in a device structure for a field-effect transistor. First and second spacers are formed adjacent to a surface of a device component from respective conformal layers. The first spacer is positioned between the surface of the device component and the second spacer. The second spacer includes a plurality of first lamina and a plurality of second lamina that are arranged in an alternating sequence with the first lamina. The first spacer has a first dielectric constant, and the second spacer has a second dielectric constant that is greater than the first dielectric constant.
