METHOD FOR FABRICATING A SEMICONDUCTOR STRUCTURE HAVING HETEROGENEOUS CRYSTALLINE ORIENTATIONS

摘要

METHOD FOR FABRICATING A SEMICONDUCTOR STRUCTURE HAVING HETEROGENEOUS CRYSTALLINE ORIENTATIONS A method for fabricating a semiconductor structure having heterogeneous crystalline orientations by forming a region including a semiconductor material having a specified crystalline orientation using an epitaxial buffer overlying a semiconductor substrate. The buffer provides a transfer body such that the semiconductor material has a crystalline orientation that differs from the crystalline orientation of a semiconductor region underlying the buffer. The method also includes fabricating a semiconductor structure having a p-type device region and an n-type device region, where a supporting semiconductor substrate is either n-type or p-type and where the semiconductor material is separated from the substrate by a buffer and has a crystalline orientation that differs from the crystalline orientation of the substrate.
