Compound semiconductor structure

Abstract

A method for fabricating semiconductor structure comprises the steps of providing a substrate including a first crystalline semiconductor material, patterning an opening in a dielectric layer above the substrate, the opening having a bottom, forming a crystalline interlayer on the substrate at least partially covering the bottom, and growing a second crystalline semiconductor material on the crystalline interlayer thereby at least partially filling the opening. The crystalline semiconductor materials are lattice mismatched, and the crystalline interlayer comprises an oxygen compound.
