Gate-all-around integrated circuit structures having asymmetric source and drain contact structures, and methods of fabricating gate-all-around integrated circuit structures having asymmetric source and drain contact structures, are described. For example, an integrated circuit structure includes a vertical arrangement of nanowires above a fin. A gate stack is over the vertical arrangement of nanowires. A first epitaxial source or drain structure is at a first end of the vertical arrangement of nanowires. A second epitaxial source or drain structure is at a second end of the vertical arrangement of nanowires. A first conductive contact structure is coupled to the first epitaxial source or drain structure. A second conductive contact structure is coupled to the second epitaxial source or drain structure. The second conductive contact structure is deeper along the fin than the first conductive contact structure. |
