A method for obtaining a semiconductor island includes epitaxially growing a semiconductor structure over a substrate with a mask layer defining a region not covered by the mask layer. The semiconductor structure includes a first portion located adjacent to the mask layer and a second portion located away from the mask layer. The first portion has a first height that is less than a second height of a portion of the mask layer located adjacent to the first portion. The second portion has a third height that is equal to, or greater than, the second height. The method also includes forming a filling layer over at least the first portion; and, subsequently removing at least a portion of the semiconductor structure that is located above the second height. Devices made by this method are also disclosed.
