Generation of multiple diameter nanowire field effect transistors

摘要

A method of modifying a wafer having semiconductor disposed on an insulator is provided and includes establishing first and second regions of the wafer with different initial semiconductor thicknesses, forming pairs of semiconductor pads connected via respective nanowire channels at each of the first and second regions and reshaping the nanowire channels into nanowires each having a respective differing thickness reflective of the different initial semiconductor thicknesses at each of the first and second regions.
