Abstract

Gate all-around devices are disclosed in which an angled channel including a semiconducting nanostructure is located between a source and a drain. The angled channel has an axis that is oriented at an angle to the top surface of the substrate at an angle in a range of about 1° to less than about 90°. The gate all-around device is intended to meet design and performance criteria for the 7 nm technology generation.
