A method of forming a pair of field effect transistors having different thickness gate dielectric layers includes, a) providing a first region on a substrate for formation of a first field effect transistor s having a first gate dielectric layer of a first thickness and providing a second region on the substrate for formation of a second field effect transistor having a second gate dielectric layer of a second thickness; b) providing the first gate dielectric layer and a first conductive gate layer over the first and second regions; c) patterning the first conductive layer to define a first gate of the first field effect transistor in the first region while leaving the first conductive layer not patterned for gate formation for the second field effect transistor in the second region; d) after defining the first gate, stripping the first conductive layer and the first gate dielectric layer from the second region; e) after stripping the first conductive layer and the first gate dielectric layer from the second region, providing the second gate dielectric layer and a second conductive gate layer over the second region; and f) patterning the second conductive layer in the second region to define a second gate of the second field effect transistor in the second region. The invention has particular utility in fabrication of SRAM circuitry.
