Abstract
A semiconductor device includes a substrate, a stack of semiconductor nanosheets, a dielectric wall, and a gate structure. The substrate includes a nanosheet mesa, and the stack of semiconductor nanosheets is disposed on the nanosheet mesa. The dielectric wall crosses through the nanosheet mesa and the stack of semiconductor nanosheets. The gate structure wraps the stack of semiconductor nanosheets and crosses over the dielectric wall, wherein a top of the dielectric wall has a recess.
