Abstract

The present disclosure provides a semiconductor device that includes a substrate of a first semiconductor material; a fin feature having a first portion, a second portion and a third portion stacked on the substrate; an isolation feature formed on the substrate and disposed on sides of the fin feature; semiconductor oxide features including a second semiconductor material, disposed on recessed sidewalls of the second portion, defining dented voids overlying the semiconductor oxide features and underlying the third portion; and a gate stack disposed on the fin feature and the isolation feature. The gate stack includes a gate dielectric layer extended into and filling in the dented voids. The first and third portions include the first semiconductor material having a first lattice constant. The second portion includes the second semiconductor material having a second lattice constant different from the first lattice constant.
