摘要:
A method of forming a transistor gate stack having an annealed gate dielectric layer begins by providing a substrate that includes a first and second spacer separated by a trench. A conformal high-k gate dielectric layer is deposited on the substrate and within the trench with a thickness that ranges from 3 Å to 60 Å. Next, a capping layer is deposited on the high-k gate dielectric layer that substantially fills the trench and covers the high-k gate dielectric layer. The high-k gate dielectric layer is then annealed at a temperature that is greater than or equal to 600° C. The capping layer is removed to expose an annealed high-k gate dielectric layer. A metal layer is then deposited on the annealed high-k gate dielectric layer. A CMP process may be used to remove excess material and complete formation of the transistor gate stack.

A method for making a semiconductor device is described. That method comprises adding nitrogen to a silicon dioxide layer to form a nitrided silicon dioxide layer on a substrate. After forming a sacrificial layer on the nitrided silicon dioxide layer, the sacrificial layer is removed to generate a trench. A high-k gate dielectric layer is formed on the nitrided silicon dioxide layer within the trench, and a metal gate electrode is formed on the high-k gate dielectric layer.

A method for making a semiconductor device is described. That method comprises forming an oxide layer on a substrate, and forming a high-k dielectric layer on the oxide layer. The oxide layer and the high-k dielectric layer are then annealed at a sufficient temperature for a sufficient time to generate a gate dielectric with a graded dielectric constant.

A buffer layer and a high-k metal oxide dielectric may be formed over a smooth silicon substrate. The substrate smoothness may reduce column growth of the high-k metal oxide gate dielectric. The surface of the substrate may be saturated with hydroxyl terminations prior to deposition.
