Abstract
Disclosed are methods for forming hybrid metal-oxide-semiconductor field effect transistors (MOSFETs) and the hybrid MOSFETS thus obtained. In one embodiment, a method is disclosed that includes providing a first substrate comprising a first region and a second region, providing a second substrate comprising a second semiconductor layer and an insulating layer overlaying the second semiconductor layer, and direct substrate bonding the second substrate to the first substrate, thereby contacting the first region and the second region with the insulating layer. The method further includes selectively removing the second semiconductor layer and the insulating layer in the first region, thereby exposing the first semiconductor layer in the first region, forming a first gate stack of a first MOSFET on the exposed first semiconductor layer in the first region, and forming a second gate stack of a second MOSFET on the second semiconductor layer in the second region.
