Abstract

See full text

An upside-down p-FET is provided on a donor substrate. The upside-down p-FET includes: self-terminating e-SiGe source and drain regions; a cap of self-aligning silicide/germanide over the e-SiGe source and drain regions; a silicon channel region connecting the e-SiGe source and drain regions; buried oxide above the silicon channel region; and a gate controlling current flow from the e-SiGe source region to the e-SiGe drain region.
