The present disclosure provides a semiconductor device. The semiconductor device includes a semiconductor substrate having a source region and a drain region, defining a first dimension from the source to drain; and a gate stack disposed on the semiconductor substrate and partially interposed between the source region and the drain region. The gate stack includes a high k dielectric layer disposed on the semiconductor substrate; a first metal feature disposed on the high k dielectric layer, the first metal gate feature having a first work function and defining a second dimension parallel with the first dimension; and a second metal feature having a second work function different from the first work function and defining a third dimension parallel with the first dimension, the third dimension being less than the second dimension.
