Abstract: Techniques are provided herein to form semiconductor devices on a substrate with an alternative crystallographic surface orientation. The techniques are particularly useful with respect to gate-all-around and forksheet transistor configurations. A substrate having a (110) crystallographic surface orientation forms the basis for the growth of alternating types of semiconductor layers. Both n-channel and p-channel transistors may be fabricated using silicon nanoribbons formed from some of the alternating semiconductor layers. The crystallographic surface orientation of the Si nanoribbons will reflect the same crystallographic surface orientation of the substrate, which leads to a higher hole mobility across the Si nanoribbons of the p-channel devices and an overall improved CMOS device performance.

Abstract: An integrated circuit includes a first device, and a laterally adjacent second device. The first device includes a first body of semiconductor material extending laterally from a first source or drain region, a first gate structure on the first body, and a first contact extending vertically upward from the first source or drain region. The second device includes a second body of semiconductor material extending laterally from a second source or drain region, a second gate structure on the second body, and a second contact extending vertically upward from the second source or drain region. A gate cut structure including dielectric material is laterally between the first gate structure and the second gate structure, and also laterally between the first contact and the second contact. In some examples, a third contact extends laterally from the first contact to the second contact and passes over the gate cut structure.
