A semiconductor device is disclosed. In one aspect, the device comprises a channel area, the channel area comprising a channel layer in which charge carriers can move when the transistor is turned on, in order to pass a current through the transistor. The device further comprises a source area and a drain area contacting the channel layer for providing current to and from the channel layer. The method further comprises a gate electrode, preferably provided with a gate dielectric between the gate electrode and the channel layer. The channel layer may comprise a III-V material, and the source and drain areas comprise SiGe, being SixGe1-x, with x between 0 and 100%, arranged so that heterojunctions are present between III-V material and SiGe, wherein the heterojunctions are oriented so as to intersect with the gate dielectric or the gate electrode.
