Abstract:
A method of fabricating a semiconductor device includes forming a lower interfacial layer on a semiconductor layer, the lower interfacial layer being a nitride layer, forming an intermediate interfacial layer on the lower interfacial layer, the intermediate interfacial layer being an oxide layer, and forming a high-k dielectric layer on the intermediate interfacial layer. The high-k dielectric layer has a dielectric constant that is higher than dielectric constants of the lower interfacial layer and the intermediate interfacial layer.
