    摘要: One embodiment of the present invention relates a semiconductor device formed by utilizing a two step deposition method for forming a gate electrode without causing damages to an underlying gate dielectric material. In one embodiment, a first layer of gate electrode material (first gate electrode layer) is formed onto the surface of a gate dielectric material using a deposition that does not damage the gate dielectric material (e.g., physical vapor deposition) thereby resulting in a damage free interface between the gate dielectric material and the gate electrode material. A second layer of gate electrode material (second gate electrode layer) is then formed onto the first layer of gate electrode material using a chemical deposition method that provides increased deposition control (e.g., good layer uniformity, impurity control, etc.). The first and second gate electrode layers are then selectively patterned to cumulatively form a semiconductor device's gate electrode.

    摘要: The present invention provides, in one embodiment, a process for forming a dual work function metal gate semiconductor device (100). The process includes providing a semiconductor substrate (105) having a gate dielectric layer (110) thereon and a metal layer (205) on the gate dielectric layer. A work function of the metal layer is matched to a conduction band or a valence band of the semiconductor substrate. The process also includes forming a conductive barrier layer (210) on a portion (215) of the metal layer and a material layer (305) on the metal layer. The metal layer and the material layer are annealed to form a metal alloy layer (405) to thereby match a work function of the metal alloy layer to another of the conduction band or the valence band of the substrate. Other embodiments of the invention include a dual work function metal gate semiconductor device (900) and an integrated circuit (1000).

    摘要: A method of setting a work function of a filly silicided semiconductor device, and related device. At least some of the illustrative embodiments are methods comprising forming a gate stack over a semiconductor substrate (the gate stack comprising a dielectric layer, a suicide layer on the dielectric layer that defines a metal-dielectric layer interface, and a polysilicon layer on the suicide layer), depositing a metal layer over the gate stack, annealing to induce a reaction between the polysilicon layer and the metal layer, and delivering a work function-setting dopant to the metal-dielectric layer interface by way of the reaction.
