Abstract

A semiconductor structure is provided in which the diffusion of arsenic is retarded. The structure includes a strain relaxed silicon germanium alloy buffer layer located on a surface of a silicon substrate. A boron-containing p-well region is located in a first region of a carbon doped silicon germanium alloy layer and on a first portion of the strain relaxed silicon germanium alloy buffer layer, and a phosphorus-containing n-well region is located in a second region of the carbon doped silicon germanium alloy layer and on a second portion of the strain relaxed silicon germanium alloy buffer layer. A tensily strained silicon material is located on a surface of the p-well region, and a compressively strained germanium-containing material is located on a surface of the n-well region.
