At least one method, apparatus and system disclosed herein involves forming a sigma shaped source/drain lattice. A fin is formed on a semiconductor substrate. A gate region is formed over the fin. In a source region and a drain region adjacent bottom portions of the fin, a first recess cavity is formed in the source region, and a second recess cavity is formed in the drain region. The first and second recess cavities comprise sidewalls formed in an angle relative to a vertical axis. Portions of the first and second recess cavities extend below the fin. In the first recess cavity, a first rare earth oxide layer is formed, and in the second recess cavity, a second rare earth oxide layer is formed.
