摘要:
In a process strategy for forming sophisticated high-k metal gate electrode structures in an early manufacturing phase, the dielectric cap material may be removed on the basis of a protective spacer element, thereby ensuring integrity of a silicon nitride sidewall spacer structure, which may preserve integrity of sensitive gate materials and may also determine the lateral offset of a strain-inducing semiconductor material.
