Methods of forming PMOS FinFET devices and multiple NMOS FinFET devices with different performance characteristics

Abstract

One method disclosed includes forming first, second and third fins for a first NMOS device, a PMOS device and a second NMOS device, respectively. According to this method, the first fin consists entirely of the substrate mate rial, the second and third fins comprise a lower substrate fin portion made of the substrate material and an upper fin portion made of a second semiconductor material and a third semiconductor material, respectively, wherein the second semiconductor material and the third semiconductor mate rial are each different from the substrate material. The method also includes forming a semiconductor material cladding on the exposed upper portion of the third fin for the second NMOS FinFET device. 24 Claims, 14 Drawing Sheets
