摘要:
A method for fabricating a CMOS gate electrode by using Re, Rh, Pt, Ir or Ru metal and a CMOS structure that contains such gate electrodes are described. The work functions of these metals make them compatible with current pFET requirements. For instance, the metal can withstand the high hydrogen pressures necessary to produce properly passivated interfaces without undergoing chemical changes. The thermal stability of the metal on dielectric layers such as SiO2, Al2O3 and other suitable dielectric materials makes it compatible with post-processing temperatures up to 1000° C. A low temperature/low pressure CVD technique with Re2(CO)10 as the source material is used when Re is to be deposited.

摘要:
An integrated circuit is provided including an FET gate structure formed on a substrate. This structure includes a gate dielectric on the substrate, and a metal nitride layer overlying the gate dielectric and in contact therewith. This metal nitride layer is characterized as MNx, where M is one of W, Re, Zr, and Hf, and x is in the range of about 0.7 to about 1.5. Preferably the layer is of WNx, and x is about 0.9. Varying the nitrogen concentration in the nitride layer permits integration of different FET characteristics on the same chip. In particular, varying x in the WNx layer permits adjustment of the threshold voltage in the different FETs. The polysilicon depletion effect is substantially reduced, and the gate structure can be made thermally stable up to about 1000° C.

A method of depositing a SiNxCy liner on a porous low thermal conductivity (low-k) substrate by plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposition (PE-ALD), which includes forming a SiNxCy liner on a surface of a low-k substrate having pores on a surface thereon, in which the low-k substrate is repeatedly exposed to a aminosilane-based precursor and a plasma selected from nitrogen, hydrogen, oxygen, helium, and combinations thereof until a thickness of the liner is obtained, and wherein the liner is prevented from penetrating inside the pores of a surface of the substrate. A porous low thermal conductivity substrate having a SiNxCy liner formed thereon by the method is also disclosed.
