    • The present invention provides a method of forming a vertical channel transistor structure (1), comprising the steps of a) forming a bottom source/drain region (3a) on a substrate surface (2) and depositing a spacer oxide layer (13) over said bottom source/drain region (3a); b) forming vertically extending portions (5) and depositing gate material (4) on the deposited spacer oxide layer (13) such that the gate material is arranged over said bottom source/drain region (3a) and over said deposited spacer oxide layer (13) and wherein said vertically extending portions (5) are arranged around and are extending above said gate material (4); c) depositing spacer material (6) at sidewalls of said vertically extending portions (5), thereby defining a horizontal gap (7) between said vertically extending portions (5), said gap (7) being positioned vertically over said gate material (4) and said bottom source/drain portion (3a). The method further comprises the steps of d) forming a vertical opening (8) through said gate material (4) extending from said horizontal gap (7) down to said bottom source/drain region (3a); e) depositing an oxide (10) at the sidewalls of said gate material (4) in said vertical opening (8); and f) performing an epitaxial deposition process of a semiconductor material on said bottom source/drain portion (3a) to form a vertical channel structure (9) above said gate (4), wherein the width (w1) of the vertical channel structure (9) through said gate (4) is defined by the width of the horizontal gap (9) after said depositing of step e); g) planarizing the formed structure (1), thereby reducing the height of the vertical channel structure (9) and the deposited spacer material (6); and h) forming a top source/drain portion (3b) over the vertical channel structure (9).
