摘要： A method for manufacturing a dual work function semiconductor device and the device made thereof are disclosed. In one aspect, a method includes providing a gate dielectric layer over a semiconductor substrate. The method further includes forming a metal layer over the gate dielectric layer. The method further includes forming a layer of gate filling material over the metal layer. The method further includes patterning the gate dielectric layer, the metal layer and the gate filling layer to form a first and a second gate stack. The method further includes removing the gate filling material only from the second gate stack thereby exposing the underlying metal layer. The method further includes converting the exposed metal layer into an metal oxide layer. The method further includes reforming the second gate stack with another gate filling material.

摘要： Two or more network traffic processors connected with the same LAN and WAN are identified as neighbors. Neighboring network traffic processors cooperate to overcome asymmetric routing, thereby ensuring that related sequences of network traffic are processed by the same network proxy. A network proxy can be included in a network traffic processor or as a standalone unit. A network traffic processor that intercepts a new connection initiation by a client assigns a network proxy to handle all messages associated with that connection. The network traffic processor conveys connection information to neighboring network traffic processors. The neighboring network traffic processors use the connection information to redirect network traffic associated with the connection to the assigned network proxy, thereby overcoming the effects of asymmetric routing. The assigned network proxy handles redirected network traffic in much the same way that it would handle network traffic received directly.

摘要： A metal gate/high-k dielectric semiconductor device provides an NMOS gate structure and a PMOS gate structure formed on a semiconductor substrate. The NMOS gate structure includes a high-k gate dielectric treated with a dopant impurity such as La and the high-k gate dielectric material of the PMOS gate structure is deficient of this dopant impurity and further includes a work function tuning layer over the high-k gate dielectric.

摘要： A metal gate/high-k dielectric semiconductor device provides an NMOS gate structure and a PMOS gate structure formed on a semiconductor substrate. The NMOS gate structure includes a high-k gate dielectric treated with a dopant impurity such as La and the high-k gate dielectric material of the PMOS gate structure is deficient of this dopant impurity and further includes a work function tuning layer over the high-k gate dielectric. A process for simultaneously forming the NMOS and PMOS gate structures includes forming the high-k gate dielectric material, and the work function tuning layer thereover, then selectively removing the work function tuning layer from the NMOS region and carrying out a plasma treatment to selectively dope the high-k gate dielectric material in the NMOS region with a dopant impurity while the high-k gate dielectric in the PMOS region is substantially free of the dopant impurity.
