Abstract
Provided are a nanowire/nanosheet device with a support portion, a method of manufacturing the same, and an electronic apparatus including the nanowire/nanosheet device. According to the embodiments, the nanowire/nanosheet device may include: a substrate; a first source/drain layer and a second source/drain layer opposite to each other in a first direction on the substrate; a first nanowire/nanosheet and a second nanowire/nanosheet, wherein the first nanowire/nanosheet and the second nanowire/nanosheet are spaced apart from a surface of the substrate, the first nanowire/nanosheet and the second nanowire/nanosheet extend from the first source/drain layer to the second source/drain layer, respectively, and are arranged adjacent to each other in a direction parallel to the surface of the substrate; a first support portion connected between the first nanowire/nanosheet and the second nanowire/nanosheet; and a gate stack extending in a second direction intersecting the first direction to surround the first nanowire/nanosheet and the second nanowire/nanosheet.
