Abstract:
Methods of forming germanium channel structure are described. An embodiment includes forming a germanium fin on a substrate, wherein a portion of the germanium fin comprises a germanium channel region, forming a gate material on the germanium channel region, and forming a graded source/drain structure adjacent the germanium channel region. The graded source/drain structure comprises a germanium concentration that is higher adjacent the germanium channel region than at a source/drain contact region.

Claim (Index 35):
The device structure of  claim 34  wherein an n-type dopant concentration in the high germanium concentration portion of the source region and the high germanium concentration portion of the drain region each individually comprise below about 1\u00d710 20  atoms per cm 3 .
