摘要:
Methods and associated structures of forming a microelectronic device are described. Those methods comprise providing a substrate comprising a first transistor structure comprising an n-type gate material and second transistor structure comprising a p-type gate material, selectively removing the n-type gate material to form a recess in the first gate structure, and then filling the recess with an n-type metal gate material.

A sacrificial gate structure, including nitride and fill layers, may be replaced with a metal gate electrode. The metal gate electrode may again be covered with a nitride layer covered by a fill layer. The replacement of the nitride and fill layers may reintroduce strain and provide an etch stop.

A method for making a semiconductor device is described. That method comprises forming a high-k gate dielectric layer on a substrate, and forming a sacrificial layer on the high-k gate dielectric layer. After etching the sacrificial layer, first and second spacers are formed on opposite sides of the sacrificial layer. After removing the sacrificial layer to generate a trench that is positioned between the first and second spacers, a metal layer is formed on the high-k gate dielectric layer.

A method for making a semiconductor device is described. That method comprises forming a first dielectric layer on a substrate, then forming a trench within the first dielectric layer. After forming a second dielectric layer on the substrate, a first metal layer is formed within the trench on a first part of the second dielectric layer. A second metal layer is then formed on the first metal layer and on a second part of the second dielectric layer.

A complementary metal oxide semiconductor integrated circuit may be formed with NMOS and PMOS transistors that have high dielectric constant gate dielectric material over a semiconductor substrate. A metal barrier layer may be formed over the gate dielectric. A workfunction setting metal layer is formed over the metal barrier layer and a cap metal layer is formed over the workfunction setting metal layer.

A method for making a semiconductor device is described. That method comprises forming a sacrificial layer on a substrate, and forming a trench within the sacrificial layer. After forming a dummy gate electrode within the trench, a hard mask is formed on the dummy gate electrode and within the trench.

A complementary metal oxide semiconductor integrated circuit may be formed with a PMOS device formed using a replacement metal gate and a raised source drain. The raised source drain may be formed of epitaxially deposited silicon germanium material that is doped p-type. The replacement metal gate process results in a metal gate electrode and may involve the-removal of a nitride etch stop layer.
