Patent ID: 11227867

Abstract:
A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device includes providing a substrate structure including a substrate, an interlayer dielectric layer, multiple trenches in the interlayer dielectric layer including first, second, third trenches for forming respective gate structures of first, second, and third transistors, forming an interface layer on the bottom of the trenches; forming a high-k dielectric layer on the interface layer and sidewalls of the trenches; forming a first PMOS work function adjustment layer on the high-k dielectric layer of the third trench; forming a second PMOS work function adjustment layer in the trenches after forming the first PMOS work function adjustment layer; forming an NMOS work function layer in the trenches after forming the second PMOS work function adjustment layer; and forming a barrier layer in the trenches after forming the NMOS work function layer and a metal gate layer on the barrier layer.
