    Abstract: Transistors having a plurality of channel semiconductor structures, such as fins, over a dielectric material. A source and drain are coupled to opposite ends of the structures and a gate stack intersects the plurality of structures between the source and drain. Lateral epitaxial overgrowth (LEO) may be employed to form a super-lattice of a desired periodicity from a sidewall of a fin template structure that is within a trench and extends from the dielectric material. Following LEO, the super-lattice structure may be planarized with surrounding dielectric material to expose a top of the super-lattice layers. Alternating ones of the super-lattice layers may then be selectively etched away, with the retained layers of the super-lattice then laterally separated from each other by a distance that is a function of the super-lattice periodicity. A gate dielectric and a gate electrode may be formed over the retained super-lattice layers for a channel of a transistor.
