Publication number: 20250120124Abstract: A method for producing a device comprising GAA transistors. Advantageously, the channels of the transistors are produced by deposition of a semiconductor material, preferably a 2D material, after successive removal of certain layers of the initial stack. The gates-all-around are produced after selective removal of the other layers from the initial stack. The initial stack does not comprise the semiconductor material, nor the material of the gates.
