Devices, and methods of forming such devices, having a material that is semimetal when in bulk but is a semiconductor in the devices are described. An example structure includes a substrate, a first source/drain contact region, a channel structure, a gate dielectric, a gate electrode, and a second source/drain contact region. The substrate has an upper surface. The channel structure is connected to and over the first source/drain contact region, and the channel structure is over the upper surface of the substrate. The channel structure has a sidewall that extends above the first source/drain contact region. The channel structure comprises a bismuth-containing semiconductor material. The gate dielectric is along the sidewall of the channel structure. The gate electrode is along the gate dielectric. The second source/drain contact region is connected to and over the channel structure. |
