The present invention describes a method of and an apparatus for providing a wafer, the wafer including Silicon; etching trenches in the wafer to form Silicon fins; filling Silicon Oxide in the trenches; planarizing the Silicon Oxide; recessing the Silicon Oxide to a first thickness to form exposed Silicon pedestals from the Silicon fins; depositing SiGe over the exposed Silicon pedestal; recessing the Silicon Oxide to a second thickness; undercutting the exposed Silicon pedestals to form necked-in Silicon pedestals; oxidizing thermally and annealing the SiGe; and forming Germanium nanowires.
