The method includes replacing a portion of a sacrificial exclusion layer between one or more vertical fins and a substrate with a temporary inner spacer. The method further includes removing a portion of a fin layer and the sacrificial exclusion layer between the one or more vertical fins and the substrate, and forming a bottom source/drain on the temporary inner spacer and between the one or more vertical fins and the substrate. The method further includes replacing a portion of the bottom source/drain with a temporary gap filler, and replacing the temporary gap filler and temporary inner spacer with a wrap-around source/drain contact having an L-shaped cross-section.
