A semiconductor device and fabrication method are described for forming a nanosheet transistor device by forming a nanosheet transistor stack (12-18, 25) of alternating Si and SiGe layers which are selectively processed to form metal-containing current terminal or source/drain regions (27, 28) and to form control terminal electrodes (36A-D) which replace the SiGe layers in the nanosheet transistor stack and are positioned between the Si layers which form transistor channel regions in the nanosheet transistor stack to connect the metal source/drain regions, thereby forming a nanosheet transistor device.
