Abstract:
In one example, a field effect transistor includes a pair of fins positioned in a spaced apart relation. Each of the fins includes germanium. Source and drain regions are formed on opposite ends of the pair of fins and include silicon. A gate is wrapped around the pair of fins, between the source and drain regions.

Claim (Index 6):
The method of  claim 1 , further comprising:\n depositing a hard mask over the fin, prior to forming the gate stack; recessing the fin under edges of the hard mask, prior to epitaxially growing the pair of conducting channels, such that the fin and the hard mask collectively form a T-shaped profile; and removing the hard mask from the fin, subsequent to epitaxially growing the pair of conducting channels.
