Abstract: A method for forming a fin field-effect transistor (FinFET) device, comprises forming a plurality of silicon fins on a substrate, depositing silicon germanium (SiGe) on the plurality of fins, forming a gate region by forming a dummy gate stack on a predetermined area of the fins including the SiGe, removing the SiGe from an area of the fins not covered by the dummy gate stack, forming a merged region in the area of the fins not covered by the dummy gate stack to form a source drain region, removing the dummy gate stack to expose the remaining SiGe in the gate region, mixing the SiGe with the silicon fins in the gate region to form SiGe fins, and depositing a gate dielectric and gate metal on the SiGe fins.

Abstract: A silicon and silicon germanium based semiconductor MODFET device design and method of manufacture. The MODFET design includes a high-mobility layer structure capable of ultra high-speed, low-noise for a variety of communication applications including RF, microwave, sub-millimeter-wave and millimeter-wave. The epitaxial field effect transistor layer structure includes critical (vertical and lateral) device scaling and layer structure design for a high mobility strained n-channel and p-channel transistor incorporating silicon and silicon germanium layers to form the optimum modulation-doped heterostructure on an ultra thin SOI or SGOI substrate capable of achieving greatly improved RF performance.
