ABSTRACT:
A semiconductor device includes a fin and a layer formed on at least a portion of the fin. The fin includes a first crystalline material. The layer includes a second crystalline material, where the first crystalline material has a larger lattice constant than the second crystalline material to induce tensile strain within the layer.
