A high-k dielectric and metal gate stack with minimal overlap with an adjacent oxide isolation region and related methods are disclosed. One embodiment of the gate stack includes a high dielectric constant (high-k) dielectric layer, a tuning layer and a metal layer positioned over an active region defined by an oxide isolation region in a substrate, wherein an outer edge of the high-k dielectric layer, the tuning layer and the metal layer overlaps the oxide isolation region by less than approximately 200 nanometers. The gate stack and related methods eliminate the regrowth effect in short channel devices by restricting the amount of overlap area between the gate stack and adjacent oxide isolation regions.

A multilayered gate stack having improved reliability (i.e., low charge trapping and gate leakage degradation) is provided. The inventive multilayered gate stack includes, from bottom to top, a metal nitrogen-containing layer located on a surface of a high-k gate dielectric and Si-containing conductor located directly on a surface of the metal nitrogen-containing layer. The improved reliability is achieved by utilizing a metal nitrogen-containing layer having a compositional ratio of metal to nitrogen of less than 1.1. The inventive gate stack can be useful as an element of a complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS). The present invention also provides a method of fabricating such a gate stack in which the process conditions of a sputtering process are varied to control the ratio of metal and nitrogen within the sputter deposited layer.
