Transistor structure with variable clad/core dimension for stress and bandgap

Abstract

An apparatus including a heterostructure disposed on a substrate and defining a channel region, the heterostructure including a first material having a first band gap less than a band gap of a material of the substrate and a second material having a second band gap that is greater than the first band gap; and a gate stack on the channel region, wherein the second material is disposed between the first material and the gate stack. A method including forming a first material having a first band gap on a substrate; forming a second material having a second band gap greater than the first band gap on the first material; and forming a gate stack on the second material.
