    Abstract: Backside contact structures include etch selective materials to facilitate backside contact formation. An integrated circuit structure includes a frontside contact region, a device region below the frontside contact region, and a backside contact region below the device region. The device region includes a transistor. The backside contact region includes a first dielectric material under a source or drain region of the transistor, a second dielectric material laterally adjacent to the first dielectric material and under a gate structure of the transistor. A non-conductive spacer is between the first and second dielectric materials. The first and second dielectric materials are selectively etchable with respect to one another and the spacer. The backside contact region may include an interconnect feature that, for instance, passes through the first dielectric material and contacts a bottom side of the source/drain region, and/or passes through the second dielectric material and contacts the gate structure.

    Abstract: Embodiments herein describe techniques for a semiconductor device including a first transistor stacked above and self-aligned with a second transistor, where a shadow of the first transistor substantially overlaps with the second transistor. The first transistor includes a first gate electrode, a first channel layer including a first channel material and separated from the first gate electrode by a first gate dielectric layer, and a first source electrode coupled to the first channel layer. The second transistor includes a second gate electrode, a second channel layer including a second channel material and separated from the second gate electrode by a second gate dielectric layer, and a second source electrode coupled to the second channel layer. The second source electrode is self-aligned with the first source electrode, and separated from the first source electrode by an isolation layer. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

    Abstract: Integrated circuit structures having differentiated source or drain structures are described. In an example, an integrated circuit structure includes first, second and third pluralities of horizontally stacked nanowires or fins, and first, second and third gate stacks. A first epitaxial source or drain structure is between the first plurality of horizontally stacked nanowires or fin and the second plurality of horizontally stacked nanowires or fin, the first epitaxial source or drain structure having a lateral width and a composition. A second epitaxial source or drain structure is between the second plurality of horizontally stacked nanowires or fin and the third plurality of horizontally stacked nanowires or fin, the second epitaxial source or drain structure having the composition of the first epitaxial source or drain structure, and the second epitaxial source or drain structure having a lateral width less than the lateral width of the first epitaxial source or drain structure.

    Abstract: Integrated circuit structures having backside source or drain contact selectivity are described. In an example, an integrated circuit structure includes a first epitaxial source or drain structure at an end of a first plurality of horizontally stacked nanowires or fin, with a first conductive source or drain contact vertically beneath and in contact with a bottom of the first epitaxial source or drain structure, and with a first hardmask material beneath and in contact with the first conductive source or drain contact. A second epitaxial source or drain structure is at an end of a second plurality of horizontally stacked nanowires or fin, with a second conductive source or drain contact vertically beneath and in contact with a bottom of the second epitaxial source or drain structure, and a second hardmask material beneath and in contact with the second conductive source or drain contact.
