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 27):
The structure of  claim 26  wherein the germanium concentration of the source region and the germanium concentration of the drain region each individually comprise greater than about 80 percent germanium adjacent the channel region.
