Abstract
A method of embedding SiGe when fabricating a PMOS device is provided. Multiple layers of SiGe layers with different Ge contents may be formed such that the Ge content increases to from bottom layer(s) to middle layer(s), and decreases from the middle layer(s) to top layer(s). In some embodiments, the embedded SiGe can have a SiGe seed layer over a substrate, a first SiGe transition layer over the SiGe seed layer, a SiGe milled layer over the first SiGe transition layer, and a second SiGe transition layer over the SiGe middle layer. The first SiGe transition layer can have a Ge content increasing from a bottom of the first SiGe transition layer to a top of the first SiGe transition layer. The second SiGe transition layer can have a Ge content decreasing from a bottom of the second SiGe transition layer to a top of the second SiGe transition layer.
