Original Abstract Submitted
A semiconductor device including a first device that includes a plurality of nanosheets located on top of a substrate, where the plurality of nanosheets includes first number of nanosheets. A second device that a plurality of vertical segments located on the substrate, where the plurality of vertical segments is in the same vertical plane. Wherein the first device and the second device are adjacent to each other. Where the plurality of vertical segments includes a second number of vertical segments and where the first number is larger than the second number.
