Abstract

In some embodiments, a semiconductor structure includes a first device and a second device. The first device has a first surface. The first device includes a first active region defined by a first material system. The second device has a second surface. The second surface is coplanar with the first surface. The second device includes a second active region defined by a second material system. The second material system is different from the first material system.
