Abstract: A method and system for providing a metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) device are described. The method and system include providing a source, a drain, and a channel residing between the source and the drain. At least a portion of the channel includes an alloy layer including an impurity having a graded concentration. The method and system also include providing a gate dielectric and a gate electrode. At least a portion of the gate dielectric resides above the alloy layer. The gate dielectric resides between the alloy layer and the gate electrode.

Abstract: A method for fabricating a heterojunction bipolar transistor (HBT) is provided. The method includes providing a substrate including a collector region; forming a compound base region over the collector region; forming a cap layer overlying the compound base region including doping the cap layer with a pre-determined percentage of at least one element associated with the compound base region; and forming an emitter region over the cap layer.
