摘要： An insulating interlayer for use in complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) that prevents unwanted shifts in threshold voltage and flatband voltage is provided. The insulating interlayer is located between a gate dielectric having a dielectric constant of greater than 4.0 and a Si-containing gate conductor. The insulating interlayer of the present invention is any metal nitride, that optionally may include oxygen, that is capable of stabilizing the threshold and flatband voltages. In a preferred embodiment, the insulating interlayer is aluminum nitride or aluminum oxynitride and the gate dielectric is hafnium oxide, hafnium silicate or hafnium silicon oxynitride. The present invention is particularly useful in stabilizing the threshold and flatband voltage of p-type field effect transistors.

摘要： A method of forming a CMOS structure, and the device produced therefrom, having improved threshold voltage and flatband voltage stability. The inventive method includes the steps of providing a semiconductor substrate having an nFET region and a pFET region; forming a dielectric stack atop the semiconductor substrate comprising an insulating interlayer atop a high k dielectric; removing the insulating interlayer from the nFET region without removing the insulating interlayer from the pFET region; and providing at least one gate stack in the pFET region and at least one gate stack in the nFET region. The insulating interlayer can be AlN or AlOxNy. The high k dielectric can be HfO2, hafnium silicate or hafnium silicon oxynitride.
