Abstract
A semiconductor gate-all-around (GAA) device may include a semiconductor substrate, source and drain regions on the semiconductor substrate, a plurality of semiconductor nanostructures extending between the source and drain regions, a gate surrounding the plurality of semiconductor nanostructures in a gate-all-around arrangement, and a dopant diffusion liner adjacent at least one of the source and drain regions and comprising a first superlattice. The first superlattice may include a plurality of stacked groups of layers, with each group of layers comprising a plurality of stacked base semiconductor monolayers defining a base semiconductor portion, and at least one non-semiconductor monolayer constrained within a crystal lattice of adjacent base semiconductor portions.
