Abstract:
A method of forming a semiconductor device includes providing a semiconductor structure that includes a first semiconductor material extending from a first region to a second region. The method further includes removing a portion of the first semiconductor material in the second region to form a recess, where the recess exposes a sidewall of the first semiconductor material disposed in the first region; forming a dielectric material covering the sidewall; while the dielectric material covers the sidewall, epitaxially growing a second semiconductor material in the second region adjacent the dielectric material; and forming a first fin including the first semiconductor material and a second fin including the second semiconductor material.

Claim (Index 15):
The method of  claim 11 , wherein the first and second semiconductor layers are in a first crystalline structure with a first crystal direction of <110>, and the third and fourth semiconductor layers are in a second crystalline structure with a second crystal direction of <110> that is offset from the first crystal direction of <110>.
