    Abstract: An integrated circuit that includes a substrate having first and second active regions is disclosed. A first transistor of a first type and a second transistor of a second type are disposed in the first and second active regions respectively. Each transistor includes a gate stack having a metal gate electrode over a gate dielectric layer. First and second gate threshold voltage adjusting (GTVA) layers contacting first and second gate dielectric layer of the first and second transistors are provided. The first GTVA layer tunes a gate threshold voltage of the first transistor. A channel of the second transistor includes dopants to tune the gate threshold voltage of the second transistor.

    Abstract: A new method is provided for the creation of ultra-thin gate oxide layers. Under the first embodiment, sacrificial oxide and nitride are deposited, openings are created in the layer of nitride where the ultra-thin layer of gate oxide is to be created. A layer of poly is deposited over the layer of nitride. The layer of polysilicon is polished, leaving the poly deposited inside the openings. The nitride is removed leaving the gate structure in place overlying the grown gate oxide. Under the second embodiment, sacrificial oxide and nitride are deposited followed by the deposition of TEOS oxide. The layers of TEOS, oxide and nitride are patterned creating openings that expose the surface areas of the layer of sacrificial oxide where the ultra-thin layers of gate oxide are to be grown. A thin conformal layer of nitride is deposited over the structure, this thin layer of conformal nitride is etched to form thin spacers on the sidewalls of the openings in the layers of TEOS oxide and nitride. Pre-gate clean is performed that removes the TEOS oxide and the sacrificial oxide on the bottom of the openings, gate oxidation is performed creating the ultra-thin layers of gate oxide. Poly is deposited, polished back followed by removal of the nitride leaving the poly gate structure in place and overlying the ultra-thin layer of gate oxide.

    Abstract: An improved MOS transistor and method of making an improved MOS transistor. An MOS transistor having a recessed source drain on a trench sidewall with a replacement gate technique. Holes are formed in the shallow trench isolations, which exposes sidewall of the substrate in the active area. Sidewalls of the substrate are doped in the active area where holes are. Conductive material is then formed in the holes and the conductive material becomes the source and drain regions. The etch stop layer is then removed exposing sidewalls of the conductive material, and oxidizing exposed sidewalls of the conductive material is preformed. Spacers are formed on top of the pad oxide and on the sidewalls of the oxidized portions of the conductive material. The pad oxide layer is removed from the structure but not from under the spacers. A gate dielectric layer is formed on the substrate in the active area between the spacers; and a gate electrode is formed on said gate dielectric layer.

    Abstract: A buffer layer and a gate dielectric layer overlying a substrate having at least one active area is provided. A sacrificial oxide layer is formed over the gate dielectric layer. A nitride layer is formed over the sacrificial oxide layer. The nitride layer is patterned to form an opening therein within the active area exposing a portion of the sacrificial oxide layer within the opening. The portion of the sacrificial oxide layer within the opening is stripped, exposing a portion of the underlying gate dielectric layer within the opening. A gate electrode is formed within opening over the portion of the gate dielectric layer. The remaining nitride layer is selectively removed. The remaining sacrificial oxide layer is then stripped and removed.
