    摘要: A method for reducing interfacial layer (IL) thickness for high-k dielectrics and metal gate stack is provided. In one embodiment, the method includes forming an interfacial layer on a semiconductor substrate, etching back the interfacial layer, depositing a high-k dielectric material over the interfacial layer, and forming a metal gate over the high-k dielectric material. The IL can be chemical oxide, ozonated oxide, thermal oxide, or formed by ultraviolet ozone (UVO) oxidation process from chemical oxide, etc. The etching back of IL can be performed by a Diluted HF (DHF) process, a vapor HF process, or any other suitable process. The method can further include performing UV curing or low thermal budget annealing on the interfacial layer before depositing the high-k dielectric material.

    摘要: A multi-layer scavenging metal gate stack, and methods of manufacturing the same, are disclosed. In an example, a gate stack disposed over a semiconductor substrate includes an interfacial dielectric layer disposed over the semiconductor substrate, a high-k dielectric layer disposed over the interfacial dielectric layer, a first conductive layer disposed over the high-k dielectric layer, and a second conductive layer disposed over the first conductive layer. The first conductive layer includes a first metal layer disposed over the high-k dielectric layer, a second metal layer disposed over the first metal layer, and a third metal layer disposed over the second metal layer. The first metal layer includes a material that scavenges oxygen impurities from the interfacial dielectric layer, and the second metal layer includes a material that adsorbs oxygen impurities from the third metal layer and prevents oxygen impurities from diffusing into the first metal layer.
