A method for fabricating a semiconductor device comprises patterning a strained fin from a strained layer of semiconductor material arranged on a substrate, depositing a first layer of semiconductor material on the fin and exposed portions of the substrate, patterning and etching to remove a portion of the first layer of semiconductor material and a portion of the fin to expose a portion of the substrate, depositing a second layer of semiconductor material on exposed portions of the substrate and the first layer of semiconductor material, and patterning and etching to remove a portion of the second layer of semiconductor material layer and the first layer of semiconductor material to define a dummy gate stack, the dummy gate stack is operative to substantially maintain the strain in the strained fin. |
