A method to reduce (avoid) Fermi Level Pinning (FLP) in high mobility semiconductor compound channel such as Ge and III-V compounds (e.g. GaAs or InGaAs) in a Metal Oxide Semiconductor (MOS) device. The method is using atomic hydrogen which passivates the interface of the high mobility semiconductor compound with the gate dielectric and further repairs defects. The methods further improve the MOS device characteristics such that a MOS device with a quantum well is created.
