    Abstract: The present disclosure describes a semiconductor device and methods for forming the same. The semiconductor device includes a first transistor device of a first type and a second transistor device of a second type. The first transistor device includes first nanostructures, a first pair of source/drain structures, and a first gate structure on the first nanostructures. The second transistor device of a second type is formed over the first transistor device. The second transistor device includes second nanostructures over the first nanostructures, a second pair of source/drain structures over the first pair or source/drain structures, and a second gate structure on the second nanostructures and over the first nanostructures.

    Abstract: The present disclosure describes a semiconductor structure and a method for forming the same. The semiconductor structure can include a substrate, first and second contact structures proximate to each other and over the substrate, and first and second dielectric layers formed over the first and second contact structures, respectively. A top portion of the first dielectric layer can include a first dielectric material. A bottom portion of the first dielectric layer can include a second dielectric material different from the first dielectric material. The second dielectric layer can include a third dielectric material different from the first dielectric material.

    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a substrate, a first semiconductor fin, a second semiconductor fin, a gate structure, a plurality of source/drain structures, a shallow trench isolation (STI) oxide, and a dielectric layer. The first semiconductor fin extends upwardly from the substrate. The second semiconductor fin extends upwardly from the substrate. The gate structure extends across the first and second semiconductor fins. The source/drain structures are on the first and second semiconductor fins. The STI oxide extends continuously between the first and second semiconductor fins and has a U-shaped profile when viewed in a cross section taken along a lengthwise direction of the gate structure. The dielectric layer is partially embedded in the STI oxide and has a U-shaped profile when viewed in the cross section taken along the lengthwise direction of the gate structure.

    Abstract: An integrated circuit (IC) device includes a semiconductor substrate having a first plurality of stacked semiconductor layers in a p-type transistor region and a second plurality of stacked semiconductor layers in a n-type transistor region. A gate dielectric layer wraps around each of the first and second plurality of stacked semiconductor layers. A first metal gate in the p-type transistor region has a work function metal layer and a first fill metal layer, where the work function metal layer wraps around and is in direct contact with the gate dielectric layer and the first fill metal layer is in direct contact with the work function metal layer. A second metal gate in the n-type transistor region has a second fill metal layer that is in direct contact with the gate dielectric layer, where the second fill metal layer has a work function about equal to or lower than 4.3 eV.
