Abstract
Improved gate stack designs for Si and SiGe dual channel devices are provided. In one aspect, a method for forming a dual channel device includes: forming fins on a substrate, the fins including Si fins in combination with SiGe fins as dual channels of an analog device and a logic device, with the analog device and the logic device each having a Si fin and a SiGe fin; forming a silicon germanium oxide (SiGeOx) layer on the SiGe fins; annealing the SiGeOx layer to form a Si-rich layer on the SiGe fins via a reaction between SiGeOx and SiGe; and forming metal gates over the Si fins and over the Si-rich layer on the SiGe fins. A dual channel device is also provided.
