    摘要: Concurrently forming different metal gate transistors having respective work functions is disclosed. In one example, a metal carbide, which has a relatively low work function, is formed over a semiconductor substrate. Oxygen and/or nitrogen are then added to the metal carbide in a second region to establish a second work function in the second region, where the metal carbide itself establishes a first work function in a first region. One or more first metal gate transistor types are then formed in the first region and one or more second metal gate transistor types are formed in the second region.

    摘要: Exemplary embodiments provide structures and fabrication methods for dual work function metal gate electrodes. The work function value of a metal gate electrode can be increased and/or decreased by disposing various electronegative species and/or electropositive species at the metal/dielectric interface to control interface dipoles. In an exemplary embodiment, various electronegative species can be disposed at the metal/dielectric interface to increase the work function value of the metal, which can be used for a PMOS metal gate electrode in a dual work function gated device. Various electropositive species can be disposed at the metal/dielectric interface to decrease the work function value of the metal, which can be used for an NMOS metal gate electrode in the dual work function gated device.

    摘要: The present invention facilitates semiconductor fabrication by providing methods of fabrication that selectively form high-k dielectric layers within NMOS regions. An I/O dielectric layer is formed in core and I/O regions of a semiconductor device (506). The I/O dielectric layer is removed (508) from the core region of the device. A core dielectric layer is formed in the core region (510). A barrier layer is deposited and patterned to expose the NMOS devices of the core region (512). The core dielectric layer is removed from the core NMOS devices (514). A high-k dielectric layer is formed (514) over the core and I/O regions. Then, the high-k dielectric layer is removed (512) from PMOS regions/devices of the core region and the NMOS and PMOS regions/devices of the I/O region.

    摘要: A dielectric layer (50) is formed over a semiconductor (10) that contains a first region (20) and a second region (30). A polysilicon layer is formed over the dielectric layer (50) and over the first region (20) and the second region (30). The polysilicon layer can comprise 0 to 50 atomic percent of germanium. A metal layer is formed over the polysilicon layer and one of the regions and reacted with the underlying polysilicon layer to form a metal silicide or a metal germano silicide. The polysilicon and metal silicide or germano silicide regions are etched to form transistor gate regions (60) and (90) respectively. If desired a cladding layer (100) can be formed above the metal gate structures.
