Tri-gate devices and methods of fabrication

摘要

The present invention is a semiconductor device comprising a carbon nanotube body having a top surface and laterally opposite sidewalls formed on a substrate. A gate dielectric layer is formed on the top surface of the carbon nanotube body and on the laterally opposite sidewalls of the carbon nanotube body. A gate electrode is formed on the gate dielectric on the top surface of the carbon nanotube body and adjacent to the gate dielectric on the laterally opposite sidewalls of the carbon nanotube body.
