Integrated circuit (IC) devices having forksheet transistors. An IC device may include adjacent forksheet transistors with different gate stacks separated by a dielectric wall. The dielectric wall may be similar to, and centered between, adjacent forksheet spines that are on and between stacks of nanoribbon channels. The gate stacks may include inner gate dielectric layers on nanoribbon channels and outer gate dielectric layers both on the inner gate dielectric layers and on the dielectric wall separating the gate dielectric stacks. Either or both of the inner and outer gate dielectric layers of the adjacent transistors may have different thicknesses or material compositions. The dielectric wall between gate electrodes and gate dielectric stacks may enable independent processing of the transistors gates by dividing the nanoribbon channels into separate gate tubs.
