Abstract: A method for fabrication a nanosheet device includes providing forming a stacked layer on a substrate, having first material layers and second material layers in different materials, alternatingly stacked up. The stacked layer is patterned to a stacked fin. A dummy stack is formed on the stacked fin. An etching back process is performed with the dummy stack with spacers to etch the stacked fin and expose the substrate. Laterally etches the first material layers and the second material layers, to have indent portions. Inner spacers fill the indent portions. A first/second source/drain layer is formed on the substrate at both sides of the dummy stack. Etching process is performed to remove the dummy gate of the dummy stack and the selected one of the first material layers and the second material layers between the inner spacers. Metal layer fills between the spacers and the inner spacers.

Abstract: A method of fabricating an integrated circuit includes the following steps. A first reticle is used to form a first pattern, wherein the first pattern includes a first feature and a first jog part protruding from and orthogonal to the first feature. A second reticle is used to form a second pattern, wherein the second pattern includes a second feature, and the first feature is between the second feature and the first jog part. A third reticle is used to form a third pattern, wherein the third pattern includes a third-one feature overlapping the first jog part and a third-two feature overlapping the second feature.
