A method for forming a gate structure includes the following steps. A substrate is provided. A silicon oxide layer is formed on the substrate. A decoupled plasma-nitridation process is applied to the silicon oxide layer so as to form a silicon oxynitride layer. A first polysilicon layer is formed on the silicon oxynitride layer. A thermal process is applied to the silicon oxynitride layer having the first polysilicon layer. After the thermal process, a second polysilicon layer is formed on the first polysilicon layer. The first polysilicon layer can protect the gate dielectric layer during the thermal process. The nitrogen atoms inside the gate dielectric layer do not lose out of the gate dielectric layer. Thus, the out-gassing phenomenon can be avoided, and a dielectric constant of the gate dielectric layer can not be changed, thereby increasing the reliability of the gate structure.

A method for forming a gate dielectric layer is described. A silicon oxide layer is formed on a semiconductor substrate. Then, a first and a second nitrogen doping processes are performed in sequence to the silicon oxide layer using plasma comprising inert gas and gaseous nitrogen to form a gate dielectric layer. The first nitrogen doping process is performed at a lower power, a lower pressure and a higher inert gas to nitrogen gas ratio than those at the second nitrogen doping process. The combination of the deeper nitrogen distribution of the first nitrogen doping process and the shallower nitrogen distribution of the second nitrogen doping process produces a flatter total nitrogen distribution profile so that leakage current from electron tunneling through the gate dielectric layer can be reduced.

A method of fabricating a nitrogen-containing gate dielectric layer is described. First, a gate dielectric layer is formed on a substrate by performing a dilute wet oxidation process. Then, a nitridation step is performed for doping nitrogen into the gate dielectric layer. After that, a re-oxidation step is performed for repairing the nitrogen-doped gate dielectric layer. The above steps are carried out inside the same reaction chamber. Moreover, two or more wafers can be treated inside the reaction chamber at the same time.
