Abstract
In a method for fabricating a field effect transistor, a first source/drain region and a second source/drain region are formed in a substrate. A channel region is formed between the first source/drain region and the second source/drain region. A gate region is formed on the channel region. Micro-cavities are formed in the substrate at least below the channel region, and the micro-cavities are oxidized.
