Abstract

Methods include providing a first fin structure and a second fin structure each extending from a substrate. A first gate-all-around (GAA) transistor is formed on the first fin structure; the first GAA transistor has a channel region within a first plurality of nanostructures. A second GAA transistor is formed on the second fin structure; the second GAA transistor has a second channel region configuration. The second GAA transistor has a channel region within a second plurality of nanostructures. The second plurality of nanostructures is less than the first plurality of nanostructures.
