Abstract

A finFET device can include a high mobility semiconductor material in a fin structure that can provide a channel region for the finFET device. A source/drain recess can be adjacent to the fin structure and a graded composition epi-grown semiconductor alloy material, that includes a component of the high mobility semiconductor material, can be located in the source/drain recess.
