Abstract:
A method for forming a semiconductor structure includes forming at least one fin on a semiconductor substrate. The least one fin includes a semiconducting material. A gate is formed over and in contact with the at least one fin. A germanium comprising layer is formed over and in contact with the at least one fin. Germanium from the germanium comprising layer is diffused into the semiconducting material of the at least one fin.

Claim (Index 12):
A method of forming a semiconductor structure, the method comprising:\n forming a plurality of fins on a semiconductor substrate, each fin of the plurality of fins comprising a semiconductor material; forming a plurality of gates, wherein each gate of the plurality of gates is formed over a portion of each fin of the plurality of fins, depositing a plurality of germanium comprising layers, wherein each germanium comprising layer of the plurality of germanium comprising layers is deposited over and in contact with an exposed top surface of one fin of the plurality of fins; and diffusing germanium from the plurality of germanium comprising layers into the semiconducting material of the plurality of fins.
