Abstract: The disclosed technology provides a semiconductor device, a manufacturing method thereof, and an electronic device including the device. An example semiconductor device includes a substrate; a first device and a second device on the substrate. Each of the first device and the second device include a first source/drain layer, a channel layer, and a second source layer that are sequentially stacked, from bottom to top, on the substrate, and a gate stack around at least a part of an outer periphery of the channel layer, with sidewalls of the respective channel layers of the first device and the second device extending at least partially along different crystal planes or crystal plane families.

Abstract: An embodiment of the present disclosure provides an etching method, having the following steps: forming a modified layer having a thickness of one or several atom layers on a selected region of a surface of a semiconductor material layer by using a modifier; and removing the modified layer. When a semiconductor is processed, this method achieves precise control over the etching thickness and improves the etching rate at the same time.

Abstract: Disclosed are a semiconductor device, a method of manufacturing the semiconductor device, and an electronic apparatus including the semiconductor device. The semiconductor device may include: a substrate; an active region extending vertically on the substrate, wherein the active region includes a first source/drain layer, a channel layer and a second source/drain layer that are sequentially stacked; a gate stack formed around at least part of an outer peripheral sidewall of the channel layer. A sidewall of the gate stack close to the channel layer is aligned with the outer peripheral sidewall of the channel layer, so as to occupy substantially a same range in a vertical direction, and a part of the gate stack close to the channel layer has a shape that gradually tapers as getting close to the channel layer.
