Abstract

The present invention relates to a method of formation of an Si.sub.1-x Ge.sub.x MOS transistor gate where x is higher than 50%, on an silicon oxide gate insulator layer, consisting of depositing an Si.sub.1-y Ge.sub.y layer of thickness lower than 10 nm, where 0<y<30%; and depositing an Si.sub.1-z Ge.sub.z layer of desired thickness, where z>50%. The desired thickness ranges, for example, between 20 nm and 200 nm. x and z range, for example, between 80% and 90%.
