摘要:
Embodiments of the present invention provide a replacement metal gate and a fabrication process with reduced lithography steps. Using selective etching techniques, a layer of fill metal is used to protect the dielectric layer in the trenches, eliminating the need for some lithography steps. This, in turn, reduces the overall cost and complexity of fabrication. Furthermore, additional protection is provided during etching, which serves to improve product yield.
