Abstract

The present invention concerns a method for forming a Semiconductor-On-Insulator structure that includes a semiconductor layer of III/V material by growing a relaxed germanium layer on a donor substrate; growing at least one layer of III/V material on the layer of germanium; forming a cleaving plane in the relaxed germanium layer; transferring a cleaved part of the donor substrate to a support substrate, with the cleaved part being a part of the donor substrate cleaved at the cleaving plane that includes the at least one layer of III/V material. The present invention also concerns a germanium on III/V-On-Insulator structure, an N Field-Effect Transistor (NFET), a method for manufacturing an NFET, a P Field-Effect Transistor (PFET), and a method for manufacturing a PFET.
