Abstract: The present invention provides a metal gate structure which is formed in a trench of a dielectric layer. The metal gate structure includes a work function metal layer and a metal layer. The work function metal layer is disposed in the trench and comprises a bottom portion and a side portion, wherein a ratio between a thickness of the bottom portion and a thickness of the side portion is between 2 and 5. The trench is filled with the metal layer. The present invention further provides a method of forming the metal gate structure.

Abstract: The fail bit count data, shmoo data, static noise margins and write margins corresponding to a wafer are measured. Using the above mentioned measurements, variables used to generate the curve are calculated. The variables used to generate the curve include the standard deviation of the fail bit count data, the static noise margins and the write margins. The curve is used to determine optimal operating condition of a fabrication process.
