Abstract:
A method of fabricating a semiconductor device is described. The method includes forming a nanosheet stack on a substrate, the nanosheet stack includes nanosheet channel layers. A gate is formed around the nanosheet channel layers of the nanosheet stack. A strained material is formed along a sidewall surface of the gate. The strained material is configured to create strain in the nanosheet channel layers of the nanosheet stack.
