Abstract
The present disclosure provides a quantum well fin field effect transistor (QWFinFET). The QWFinFET includes a semiconductor fin over a substrate and a combo quantum well (QW) structure over the semiconductor fin. The combo QW structure includes a QW structure over a top portion of the semiconductor fin and a middle portion of the semiconductor fin. The semiconductor fin and the QW comprise different semiconductor materials. The QWFinFET also includes a gate stack over the combo QW structure.
