Abstract

Semiconductor structures and devices including strained material layers having impurity-free zones, and methods for fabricating same. Certain regions of the strained material layers are kept free of impurities that can interdiffuse from adjacent portions of the semiconductor. When impurities are present in certain regions of the strained material layer, there is degradation in device performance. By employing semiconductor structures and devices (e.g., field effect transistors or 'FETs') that have the features described, or are fabricated in accordance with the steps described, device operation is enhanced.
