Abstract
Semiconductor structures and methods are provided. In an embodiment, a semiconductor structure includes a substrate including a first mesa structure and a second mesa structure, an isolation feature extending between the first mesa structure and the second mesa structure, a first vertical stack of nanostructures directly over the first mesa structure, first source/drain features coupled to the first vertical stack of nanostructures, a dielectric layer comprising a first portion disposed on the isolation feature and a second portion disposed between the first-type source/drain features and the substrate, and a first gate structure wrapping around each nanostructure of the first vertical stack of nanostructures.
