Abstract:
Generally, the present disclosure provides example embodiments relating to tuning threshold voltages in transistor devices and the transistor devices formed thereby. Various examples implementing various mechanisms for tuning threshold voltages are described. In an example method, a gate dielectric layer is deposited over an active area in a device region of a substrate. A dipole layer is deposited over the gate dielectric layer in the device region. A dipole dopant species is diffused from the dipole layer into the gate dielectric layer in the device region.

Claim (Index 14):
The structure of  claim 10 , wherein:\n the first transistor further comprises a first channel region in the first active area and underlying the first gate dielectric layer, the first channel region being doped with a first conductivity dopant species at a first conductivity dopant concentration; the second transistor further comprises a second channel region in the second active area and underlying the second gate dielectric layer, the second channel region being doped with a second conductivity dopant species at a second conductivity dopant concentration; the first conductivity dopant species being a same conductivity type as the second conductivity dopant species; and the first conductivity dopant concentration is different from the second conductivity dopant concentration.
