Publication number: 20230369407Abstract: The current disclosure describes techniques for individually selecting the number of channel strips for a device. The channel strips are selected by defining a three-dimensional active region that include a surface active area and a depth/height. Semiconductor strips in the active region are selected as channel strips. Semiconductor strips contained in the active region will be configured to be channel strips. Semiconductor strips not included in the active region are not selected as channel strips and are separated from source/drain structures by an auxiliary buffer layer.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 26, 2023Publication date: November 16, 2023Inventors: Ya-Jui Tsou, Zong-You Luo, Wen Hung Huang, Jhih-Yang Yan, Chee-Wee Liu
