Recessed channel array transistor (RCAT) structures and method of formation are generally described. In one example, an electronic device includes a semiconductor substrate, a first fin coupled with the semiconductor substrate, the first fin comprising a first source region and a first drain region, and a first gate structure of a recessed channel array transistor (RCAT) formed in a first gate region disposed between the first source region and the first drain region, wherein the first gate structure is formed by removing a sacrificial gate structure to expose the first fin in the first gate region, recessing a channel structure into the first fin, and forming the first gate structure on the recessed channel structure.
