Abstract
Evolution of transistor structures, from planar, fin to gate-all-around (GAA) nanowire (NW)/nanosheet (NS), enables consecutive device scaling and performance boost. To further enhance the drive current per footprint, a vertically stacked configuration compatible with current CMOS technology may be a promising approach for extending Moore's Law. In this paper, we review the recent status of stacked FET architectures and beyond, as well as pointing out the challenges and perspectives.
