    摘要: Methods for fabricating two metal gate stacks for complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) devices are provided. A common layer, such as a metal layer, a metal alloy layer, or a metal nitride layer may be deposited on to a gate dielectric. A first mask layer may be deposited and patterned over an active region, exposing a portion of the common layer. A first ion may be deposited in the common layer forming a first mask layer. Similarly, a second mask layer may be deposited and patterned over the other active region and the first metal layer, and another portion of the common layer is exposed. A second ion may be deposited in the common layer, forming a second mask layer.

    摘要: Methods for fabricating two metal gate stacks for complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) devices are provided. A first metal layer may be deposited onto a gate dielectric. Next a mask layer may be deposited on the first metal layer and subsequently etch. The first metal layer is then etched. Without removing the mask layer, a second metal layer may be deposited. In one embodiment, the mask layer is a second metal layer. In other embodiments, the mask layer is a silicon layer. Subsequent fabrication steps include depositing another metal layer (e.g., another PMOS metal layer), depositing a cap, etching the cap to define gate stacks, and simultaneously etching the first and second gate region having a similar thickness with differing metal layers.

    摘要: CMOS circuit structures are disclosed with the PFET and NFET devices having high-k dielectric layers consisting of the same gate insulator material, and metal gate layers consisting of the same gate metal material. The PFET device has a “p” interface control layer which is capable of shifting the effective-workfunction of the gate in the p-direction. In a representative embodiment of the invention the “p” interface control layer is aluminum oxide. The NFET device may have an “n” interface control layer. The materials of the “p” and “n” interface control layers are differing materials. The “p” and “n” interface control layers are positioned to the opposite sides of their corresponding high-k dielectric layers. Methods for fabricating the CMOS circuit structures with the oppositely positioned “p” and “n” interface control layers are also disclosed.

    摘要: A method for fabricating metal gate and polysilicon gate FET devices on the same chip is disclosed. The method avoids the use of two separate masks during gate stack fabrication of the differing gates. By using a single mask, tighter NFET to PFET distances can be achieved, and the fabrication process is simplified. After blanket disposing layers for the fabrication of the metal gate stack, a covering protective material layer is formed, again in blanket fashion. A block level mask is used to clear the surface for the gate insulator formation in the poly gate device regions. During oxidation, which forms the gate dielectric for the poly gate devices, the protective material prevents damage of the metal gate device regions. Following oxidation, a single common polysilicon cover is disposed in blanket manner for continuing the fabrication of the gate stacks. The protective material is selected in such a way to be either easily removable upon oxidation, or to be conductive upon oxidation. In this latter case the oxidized protective material is incorporated into the metal gate stack, which incorporation results in a novel CMOS structure.

    摘要: A disposable spacer is formed directly on or in close proximity to the sidewalls of a gate electrode and a gate dielectric. The disposable spacer comprises a material that scavenges oxygen such as a metal, a metal nitride, or a semiconductor material having high reactivity with oxygen. The disposable gate spacer absorbs any oxygen during subsequent high temperature processing such as a stress memorization anneal. A metal is deposited over, and reacted with, the gate electrode and source and drain regions to form metal semiconductor alloy regions. The disposable gate spacer is subsequently removed selective to the metal semiconductor alloy regions. A porous or non-porous low-k dielectric material is deposited to provide a low parasitic capacitance between the gate electrode and the source and drain regions. The gate dielectric maintains the original dielectric constant since the disposable gate spacer prevents absorption of additional oxygen during high temperature processes.
