Abstract
A semiconductor device structure and a formation method are provided. The method includes forming a sacrificial base layer over a substrate and forming a semiconductor stack over the sacrificial base layer. The semiconductor stack has multiple sacrificial layers and multiple semiconductor layers laid out alternately. The method also includes forming a gate stack to partially cover the sacrificial base layer, the semiconductor layers, and the sacrificial layers. The method further includes removing the sacrificial base layer to form a recess between the substrate and the semiconductor stack. In addition, the method includes forming a metal-containing dielectric structure to partially or completely fill the recess. The metal-containing dielectric structure has multiple sub-layers.
