摘要:
The present invention provides a method of forming a threshold voltage adjusted gate stack in which an external acid diffusion process is employed for selectively removing a portion of a threshold voltage adjusting layer from one device region of a semiconductor substrate. The external acid diffusion process utilizes an acid polymer which when baked exhibits an increase in acid concentration which can diffuse into an underlying exposed portion of a threshold voltage adjusting layer. The diffused acid reacts with the exposed portion of the threshold voltage adjusting layer providing an acid reacted layer that can be selectively removed as compared to a laterally adjacent portion of the threshold voltage adjusting layer that is not exposed to the diffused acid.
