A nanosheet field effect transistor design in which the threshold voltage is adjustable by adjusting the composition of the gate. The channel of the nanosheet field effect transistor may be composed of a III-V semiconductor material, and the gate, which may be separated from the channel by a high dielectric constant dielectric layer, may also be composed of a III-V semiconductor material. Adjusting the composition of the gate may result in a change in the affinity of the gate, in turn resulting in a change in the threshold voltage. In some embodiments the channel is composed, for example, of In.sub.xGa.sub.1-xAs, with x between 0.23 and 0.53, and the gate is composed of InAs.sub.1-yN.sub.y with y between 0.0 and 0.4, and the values of x and y may be adjusted to adjust the threshold voltage.

A method for performing epitaxial lift-off allowing reuse of a III-V substrate to grow III-V devices is presented. A sample is received comprising a growth substrate with a top surface, a sacrificial layer on the top surface, and a device layer on the sacrificial layer. This substrate is supported inside a container and the container is filled with a wet etchant such that the wet etchant progressively etches away the sacrificial layer and the device layer lifts away from the growth substrate. While filling the container with the wet etchant, the sample is supported in the container such that the top surface of the growth substrate is non-parallel with an uppermost surface of the wet etchant. Performed in this manner, the lift-off process requires little individual setup of the sample, and is capable of batch processing and high throughput.
