Devices and methods of fabricating integrated circuit devices for forming uniform nano sheet spacers self-aligned to the channel are provided. One method includes, for instance: obtaining an intermediate semiconductor device having a substrate, multiple layers disposed on the substrate, and at least one gate structure disposed on the multiple layers; depositing an oxide layer over the device; etching the oxide layer to form replacement sidewall spacers positioned on left and right sides of the at least one gate structure; etching the multiple layers to form at least one stack structure; and forming a plurality of recesses within the at least one stack structure. Also disclosed is an intermediate semiconductor, which includes, for instance: a substrate; and at least one stack structure disposed on the substrate, the at least one stack structure having an upper portion and a base portion, wherein a plurality of recesses are located within the base portion.
