According to embodiments, during a deposition of semiconductor layers, the process is controlled to remain at low temperatures such that an inter-diffusion rate between the materials of the deposited layers is managed to provide diffusion interfaces with abrupt Si/SiGe interfaces.

In embodiments, horizontal NWs of a GAA transistor may be formed with substantially the same size diameters and silicon germanium (SiGe) NWs may be formed with “all-in-one” silicon (Si) caps.
