A device includes a nanowire, a gate dielectric layer, a gate electrode, a gate pickup metal layer, and a gate contact. The nanowire extends in a direction perpendicular to a top surface of a substrate. The gate dielectric layer laterally surrounds the nanowire. The gate electrode laterally surrounds the gate dielectric layer. The gate pickup metal layer is in contact with a bottom surface of the gate electrode and extends laterally past opposite sidewalls of the gate electrode. The gate contact is in contact with the gate pickup metal layer.
