Various embodiments provide transistors and fabrication methods. An exemplary transistor can include a silicon nitride layer disposed between a gate dielectric layer and a gate electrode layer. The silicon nitride layer can have a first surface in contact with the gate dielectric layer and a second surface in contact with the gate electrode layer. The second surface can include silicon atoms having a concentration higher than the first surface. A sidewall spacer can be formed on the semiconductor substrate along sidewalls of each of the gate electrode layer, the silicon nitride layer, and the gate dielectric layer. The disclosed transistor can have a reduced turn-on voltage with reduced power consumption. |
