In a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device, a semiconductor layer is patterned to form a source region, a channel region, and a drain region in the semiconductor layer. The channel region extends between the source region and the drain region. Corners of the channel region are rounded by annealing the channel region to form a nano-rod structure. Part of the nano-rod structure is then used as a gate channel. Preferably, a gate dielectric and a gate electrode both wrap around the nano-rod structure, with the gate dielectric being between the nano-rod structure and the gate electrode, to form a transistor device.
