  • Patent number: 12278145
    Abstract: Semiconductor devices and methods of fabricating the semiconductor devices are described herein. The method includes steps for patterning fins in a multilayer stack and forming an opening in a fin as an initial step in forming a multilayer source/drain region. The opening is formed into a parasitic channel region of the fin. Once the opening has been formed, a source/drain barrier material is deposited using a bottom-up deposition process at the bottom of the opening to a level below the multilayer stack. A multilayer source/drain region is formed over the source/drain barrier material. A stack of nanostructures is formed by removing sacrificial layers of the multilayer stack, the multilayer source/drain region being electrically coupled to the stack of nanostructures.
