    Abstract: An improved field effect transistor and method of fabrication are disclosed. A barrier layer stack is formed in the base and sidewalls of a gate cavity. The barrier layer stack has a first metal layer and a second metal layer. A gate electrode metal is deposited in the cavity. The barrier layer stack is thinned or removed on the sidewalls of the gate cavity, to more precisely control the voltage threshold of the field effect transistor.

    Abstract: Methods of scaling thickness of a gate dielectric structure that overlies a semiconductor substrate, methods of forming an integrated circuit, and integrated circuits are provided. A method of scaling thickness of a gate dielectric structure that overlies a semiconductor substrate includes providing the semiconductor substrate. An interfacial oxide layer is formed in or on the semiconductor substrate. A high-k dielectric layer is formed over the interfacial oxide layer. An oxygen reservoir is formed over at least a portion of the high-k dielectric layer. A sealant layer is formed over the oxygen reservoir. The semiconductor substrate including the oxygen reservoir disposed thereon is annealed to diffuse oxygen through the high-k dielectric layer and the interfacial oxide layer from the oxygen reservoir. Annealing extends the interfacial oxide layer into the semiconductor substrate at portions of the semiconductor substrate that underlie the oxygen reservoir to form a regrown interfacial region in or on the semiconductor substrate.

    Abstract: A semiconductor comprising a multilayer structure which prevents oxidization of the titanium nitride layer that protects a high-K dielectric layer is provided. Replacement metal gates are over the multilayer structure. A sacrificial polysilicon gate structure is deposited first. The sacrificial polysilicon gate structure is then removed, and the various layers of the replacement metal gate structure are deposited in the space previously occupied by the sacrificial polysilicon gate structure.

    Abstract: A gate structure of a semiconductor device having a NFET and a PFET, includes a lower layer of a hafnium-based dielectric over the gates of the NFET and PFET, and an upper layer of a lanthanide dielectric. The dielectrics are annealed to mix them above the NFET resulting in a lowered work function, and corresponding threshold voltage reduction. An annealed, relatively thick titanium nitride cap over the mixed dielectric above the NFET gate also lowers the work function and threshold voltage. Above the TiN cap and the hafnium-based dielectric over the PFET gate, is another layer of titanium nitride that has not been annealed. A conducting layer of tungsten covers the structure.
