Abstract

A method for manufacturing a nanosheet semiconductor device includes forming a poly gate on a nanosheet stack which includes at least one first nanosheet and at least one second nanosheet alternating with the at least one first nanosheet; recessing the nanosheet stack to form a source/drain recess proximate to the poly gate; forming an inner spacer laterally covering the at least one first nanosheet; and selectively etching the at least one second nanosheet.
