Metal stack for reduced gate resistance |
摘要 |
A method includes forming an n-FET device and a p-FET device on a substrate, each of the n-FET device and the p-FET device include a metal gate stack consisting of a titanium-aluminum carbide (TiAlC) layer above and in direct contact with a titanium nitride (TiN) cap, and removing, from the p-FET device, the TiAlC layer selective to the TiN cap. The removal of the TiAlC layer includes using a selective TiAlC to TiN wet etch chemistry solution with a substantially high TiAlC to TiN etch ratio such that the TiN cap remains in the p-FET device. |

1. A method comprising:
forming an n-FET device and a p-FET device on a substrate, wherein each of the n-FET device and the p-FET device include a metal gate stack comprising a titanium-aluminum carbide (TiAlC) layer above and in direct contact with a titanium nitride (TiN) cap; and removing, from the p-FET device, the TiAlC layer selective to the TiN cap, wherein removing the TiAlC layer comprises using a selective TiAlC to TiN wet etch chemistry solution with a substantially high TiAlC to TiN etch ratio such that the TiN cap remains in the p-FET device. |
