    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: Techniques and mechanisms for operating transistors that are in a stacked configuration. In an embodiment, an integrated circuit (IC) device includes transistors arranged along a line of direction which is orthogonal to a surface of a semiconductor substrate. A first epitaxial structure and a second epitaxial structure are coupled, respectively, to a first channel structure of a first transistor and a second channel structure of a second transistor. The first epitaxial structure and the second epitaxial structure are at different respective levels relative to the surface of the semiconductor substrate. A dielectric material is disposed between the first epitaxial structure and the second epitaxial structure to facilitate electrical insulation of the channels from each other. In another embodiment, the stacked transistors are coupled to provide a complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) inverter circuit.

    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.
