Abstract
A heterostructure includes a stained epitaxial layer of either silicon or germanium that is located overlying a silicon substrate, with a spatially graded Ge.sub.x Si.sub.1-x epitaxial layer overlain by a ungraded Ge.sub.x.sbsb.0 Si.sub.1-x.sbsb.0 intervening between the silicon substrate and the strained layer. Such a heterostructure can serve as a foundation for such devices as surface emitting LEDs, either n-channel or p-channel silicon-based MODFETs, and either n-channel or p-channel silicon-based MOSFETs.
