Abstract
A method for forming heterogeneous complementary FETs using a compact stacked nanosheet process is disclosed. The method comprises forming a first nanosheet stack comprising two layers of a first channel material separated by a second sacrificial layer, forming over the first nanosheet stack an equivalent second nanosheet stack, wherein the first channel material is complementary to the second channel material. The method comprises further forming a first source region and a first drain region, thereby building a first FET, and forming over the first source region and the first drain region a second source region and a second drain region, thereby building a second FET, removing selectively sacrificial layers, and forming a gate stack comprising a gate-all-around structure around all channels.
