Abstract: A method of forming semiconductor devices that includes forming an oxide that is doped with a punch through dopant on a surface of a first semiconductor material having a first lattice dimension, and diffusing punch through dopant from the oxide into the semiconductor material to provide a punch through stop region. The oxide may then be removed. A second semiconductor material may be formed having a second lattice dimension on the first semiconductor material having the first lattice dimension. A difference between the first lattice dimension and the second lattice dimension forms a strain in the second semiconductor material. A gate structure and source and drain regions are formed on the second semiconductor material.
