Abstract

A semiconductor device includes a first diffusion region having a first conductivity type, a first SiGe fin formed on the first diffusion region, a second diffusion region having a second conductivity type, and a second SiGe fin formed on the second diffusion region and including a central portion including a first amount of Ge, and a surface portion including a second amount of Ge which is greater than the first amount. A total width of the central portion and the surface portion is substantially equal to a width of the second diffusion region.
