A reflow bonding method easily bonds first and second wiring members together by reflowing solder arranged on at least one of first and second bonding parts that are defined on the first and second wiring members, respectively. The method includes positioning the first and second wiring members so that the first and second bonding parts face each other with the solder interposed between them and heating and pressing one of the first and second bonding parts from behind with a pressing face of a heater chip so that the first and second bonding parts lie one on another and so that the solder is heated and reflows to bond the first and second wiring members together.

Replacement gate work function material stacks are provided, which provides a work function about the energy level of the conduction band of silicon. After removal of a disposable gate stack, a gate dielectric layer is formed in a gate cavity. A metallic compound layer including a metal and a non-metal element is deposited directly on the gate dielectric layer. At least one barrier layer and a conductive material layer is deposited and planarized to fill the gate cavity. The metallic compound layer includes a material having a work function about 4.4 eV or less, and can include a material selected from tantalum carbide and a hafnium-silicon alloy. Thus, the metallic compound layer can provide a work function that enhances the performance of an n-type field effect transistor employing a silicon channel.

Methods for polishing multiple dielectric layers to form replacement metal gate structures include a first chemical mechanical polish step to remove overburden and planarize a top layer to leave a planarized thickness over a gate structure. A second chemical mechanical polish step includes removal of the thickness to expose an underlying covered surface of a dielectric of the gate structure with a slurry configured to polish the top layer and the underlying covered surface substantially equally to accomplish a planar topography. A third chemical mechanical polish step is employed to remove the dielectric of the gate structure and expose a gate conductor.

摘要:
A stack of a high-k gate dielectric and a metal gate structure includes a lower metal layer, a scavenging metal layer, and an upper metal layer. The scavenging metal layer meets the following two criteria 1) a metal (M) for which the Gibbs free energy change of the reaction Si+2/y MxOy→2x/y M+SiO2 is positive 2) a metal that has a more negative Gibbs free energy per oxygen atom for formation of oxide than the material of the lower metal layer and the material of the upper metal layer. The scavenging metal layer meeting these criteria captures oxygen atoms as the oxygen atoms diffuse through the gate electrode toward the high-k gate dielectric. In addition, the scavenging metal layer remotely reduces the thickness of a silicon oxide interfacial layer underneath the high-k dielectric. As a result, the equivalent oxide thickness (EOT) of the total gate dielectric is reduced and the field effect transistor maintains a constant threshold voltage even after high temperature processes during CMOS integration.
