Abstract

A method of processing semiconductor materials and a corresponding semiconductor structure, including providing a virtual substrate of a GaAs epitaxial film on a Si substrate, and epitaxially growing a relaxed graded layer of InxGa1−xAs at a temperature ranging upwards from about 600° C. with a subsequent process for planarization of the InGaAs alloy.
