    摘要: Semiconductor structures including a high k gate dielectric material that has at least one surface threshold voltage adjusting region located within 3 nm or less from an upper surface of the high k gate dielectric are provided. The at least one surface threshold voltage adjusting region is formed by a cluster beam implant step in which at least one threshold voltage adjusting impurity is formed directly within the high k gate dielectric or driven in from an overlying threshold voltage adjusting material which is subsequently removed from the structure following the cluster beam implant step.

    摘要: A semiconductor structure is provided. The structure includes an n-type field-effect-transistor (NFET) being formed directly on top of a strained silicon layer, and a p-type field-effect-transistor (PFET) being formed on top of the same stained silicon layer but via a layer of silicon-germanium (SiGe). The strained silicon layer may be formed on top of a layer of insulating material or a silicon-germanium layer with graded Ge content variation. Furthermore, the NFET and PFET are formed next to each other and are separated by a shallow trench isolation (STI) formed inside the strained silicon layer. Methods of forming the semiconductor structure are also provided.

    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.
