Abstract
Structures for a field-effect transistor and methods of forming a structure for a field-effect transistor. The structure comprises a semiconductor layer, a first raised source/drain region on the semiconductor layer, a second raised source/drain region on the semiconductor layer, a gate electrode laterally between the first raised source/drain region and the second raised source/drain region, a first airgap laterally between the first raised source/drain region and the gate electrode, and a second airgap laterally between the second raised source/drain region and the gate electrode. The gate electrode includes a first section and a second section between the first section and the semiconductor layer, the first section of the gate electrode has a first width, the second section of the gate electrode has a second width, and the first width is greater than the second width.
