Abstract:
A p-type FinFET has an oxygen reservoir disposed on the gate stack. The oxygen reservoir provides an oxygen rich environment during processing steps of manufacturing the device to help the work function metal retain or obtain oxygen to maintain or increase the work function and keep the Vth of the device lower.
