ABSTRACT:
A method for fabricating a GeSi/Si/SiO.sub.2 heterostructure comprises the steps of: (a) providing a monocrystalline Si substrate; (b) defining a GeSi region within the Si substrate while leaving a Si cap overlying the GeSi region, the Si cap being an integral part of the monocrystalline substrate; and (c) oxidizing part of the Si cap to thereby produce the GeSi/Si/SiO.sub.2 heterostructure.
