Abstract

A method of forming a semiconductor device that includes forming a metal oxide material on a III-V semiconductor channel region or a germanium containing channel region; and treating the metal oxide material with an oxidation process. The method may further include depositing of a hafnium containing oxide on the metal oxide material after the oxidation process, and forming a gate conductor atop the hafnium containing oxide. The source and drain regions are on present on opposing sides of the gate structure including the metal oxide material, the hafnium containing oxide and the gate conductor.
