Abstract
A transistor including a source and a drain each formed in a substrate; a channel disposed in the substrate between the source and drain, wherein the channel includes opposing sidewalls with a distance between the opposing sidewalls defining a width dimension of the channel and wherein the opposing sidewalls extend a distance below a surface of the substrate; and a gate electrode on the channel. A method of forming a transistor including forming a source and a drain in an area of a substrate; forming a source contact on the source and a drain contact on the drain; after forming the source contact and the drain contact, forming a channel in the substrate in an area between the source and drain, the channel including a body having opposing sidewalls separated by a length dimension; and forming a gate contact on the channel.
