Abstract
In a described example, an integrated circuit (IC) is disclosed that includes a transistor. The transistor includes a substrate, and a buffer structure overlying the substrate. The buffer structure has a first buffer layer, a second buffer layer overlying the first buffer layer, and a third buffer layer overlying the second buffer layer. The first buffer layer has a first carbon concentration, the second buffer layer has a second carbon concentration lower than the first carbon concentration, and the third buffer layer has a third carbon concentration higher than the second carbon concentration. An active structure overlies the buffer structure.
