Patent ID: 8441107

Claim:
An apparatus comprising: a substrate; a first device that includes a first projection and a first gate structure, the first projection extending upwardly from the substrate and having a first channel region therein, and the first gate structure engaging the first projection adjacent the first channel region, the first structure including: a high-k first dielectric material over the first channel region; an opening over the first dielectric material and the first channel region; and a conformal, pure metal with a low resistivity disposed in the opening; and a second device that includes a second projection and a second gate structure, the second projection extending upwardly from the substrate and having a second channel region therein, and the second gate structure engaging the second projection adjacent the second channel region, the second structure including: a second dielectric material over the second channel region; and a silicide disposed over the second dielectric material and second channel region, wherein the silicide includes a metal that is the same metal disposed in the opening.
