Abstract

An apparatus including a substrate and a first nanosheet device located on the substrate. A second nanosheet device is located on the substrate, where the second nanosheet device is adjacent to the first nanosheet device. At least one first gate located on the first nanosheet device and the at least one first gate has a first width. At least one second gate located on the second nanosheet device and the at least one second gate has a second width. The first width and the second width are substantially the same. A diffusion break located between the first nanosheet device and the second nanosheet device. The diffusion break prevents the first nanosheet device from contacting the second nanosheet device, and the diffusion break has a third width. The third width is larger than the first width and the second width.
