    摘要: Methods and systems are disclosed that facilitate formation of dielectric layers having a particular composition profile by forming the dielectric layer as a number of sub-layers. The sub-layers are thin enough so that specific relative compositions can be achieved for each layer and, therefore, the sub-layers collectively yield a dielectric layer with a particular profile. The formation of individual sub layers is accomplished by controlling one or more processing parameters for a chemical vapor deposition process that affect relative compositions. Some processing parameters that can be employed include wafer temperature, pressure, and precursor flow rate.

    摘要: Forming metal gate transistors that have different work functions is disclosed. In one example, a first metal is added to a first region of polysilicon overlying a dielectric that is on a substrate, and a second metal is added to a second region of the polysilicon. A third metal is formed over the first and second regions and a silicidation process if performed to form a first alloy in the first region and a second alloy in the second region. First and second segregated regions are also established adjacent to the dielectric in the first and second regions, respectively. The first and second metals serve to shift or adjust respective values of first and second work functions in the first and second regions.

    摘要: Semiconductor devices and fabrication methods are presented, in which transistor gate structures are created using doped metal silicide materials. Upper and lower metal silicides are formed above a gate dielectric, wherein the lower metal silicide is doped with n-type impurities for NMOS gates and with p-type impurities for PMOS gates, and wherein a silicon may, but need not be formed between the upper and lower metal silicides. The lower metal silicide can be deposited directly, or may be formed through reaction of deposited metal and poly-silicon, and the lower silicide can be doped by diffusion or implantation, before or after gate patterning.

    摘要: The present invention facilitates semiconductor fabrication by providing methods of fabrication that selectively form high-k dielectric layers within NMOS regions. An oxide layer is formed in core and I/O regions of a semiconductor device (506). The oxide layer is removed (508) from the core region of the device. A high-k dielectric layer is formed (510) over the core and I/O regions. Then, the high-k dielectric layer is removed (512) from PMOS regions of the core and I/O regions. A silicon nitride layer is grown (516) within PMOS regions of the core and I/O regions by a low temperature thermal process. Subsequently, an oxidation process is performed (518) that oxidizes the silicon nitride into silicon oxynitride.

    摘要: Fabricating a semiconductor includes depositing a metal layer outwardly from a dielectric layer and forming a mask layer outwardly from a first portion of the metal layer. Atoms are incorporated into an exposed second portion of the metal layer to form a composition-altered portion of the metal layer. The mask layer is removed from the first portion of the metal layer and a barrier layer is deposited outwardly from the metal layer. A poly-Si layer is deposited outwardly from the barrier layer to form a semiconductor layer, where the barrier layer substantially prevents reaction of the metal layer with the poly-Si layer. The semiconductor layer is etched to form gate stacks, where each gate stack operates according to one of a plurality of work functions.
