Abstract
A device includes a substrate, a first semiconductor fin over the substrate extending in a first lateral direction, a first vertical stack of semiconductor nanosheets over the substrate extending in the first lateral direction, and an inactive fin between the first semiconductor fin and the first vertical stack extending in the first lateral direction. A first gate structure surrounds and covers the first semiconductor fin, and extends in a second lateral direction substantially perpendicular to the first lateral direction. A second gate structure surrounds and covers the first vertical stack, and extends in the second lateral direction.
