Abstract
A semiconductor device includes a fin protruding upwardly from a substrate. The fin includes a first sidewall and an opposing second sidewall and a top surface extending between the first and second sidewalls. The semiconductor device also includes a two-dimensional material layer disposed on the first and second sidewalls of the fin without being disposed on the top surface of the fin, and a gate stack disposed on the fin. The gate stack contacts a channel region defined in the two-dimensional material layer. The two-dimensional material layer includes a flat portion extending laterally away from the fin.
