A semiconductor structure and its method of fabrication include a semiconductor fin located over a substrate. A gate electrode is located over the semiconductor fin. The gate electrode has a first stress in a first region located closer to the semiconductor fin and a second stress which is different than the first stress in a second region located further from the semiconductor fin. The semiconductor fin may also be aligned over a pedestal within the substrate. The semiconductor structure is annealed under desirable stress conditions to obtain an enhancement of semiconductor device performance.
