Integrated circuits with Si and non-Si nanosheet FET co-integration with low band-to-band tunneling and methods of fabricating the same

Abstract

An integrated circuit may include multiple first, non-Si, nanosheet field-effect transistors (FETs) and multiple second, Si, nanosheet FETs. Nanosheets of ones of the first, non-Si, nanosheet FETs may include less than about 30% Si. The first, non-Si, nanosheet FETs may define a critical speed path of the circuit of the integrated circuit. Nanosheets of ones of the second, Si, nanosheet FETs may include more than about 30% Si. The second, Si, nanosheet FETs may define a non-critical speed path of the integrated circuit. Ones of the first, non-Si, nanosheet FETs may be configured to have a higher speed than a speed of ones of the second, Si, nanosheet FETs.
