Abstract:
A strip or portions of a strip of silicon-germanium is made by first producing a strip of silicon suspended above a substrate. At least a portion of the strip of silicon is with a layer of silicon-germanium. Germanium enrichment of the portion of the strip of silicon is accomplished through a thermal oxidation. The resulting silicon oxide formed during the thermal oxidation is then removed.

Claim (Index 2):
The process according to  claim 1 , additionally comprising a step of masking a part of the strip of silicon in order to protect the part of the strip of silicon from the steps of deposition of silicon-germanium and enrichment by thermal oxidation.
