SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE AND MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREOF

摘要

A semiconductor device and a manufacturing method thereof is provided. The method comprises: providing a substrate for the semiconductor device with a gate structure and a first dielectric interlayer being formed thereon, said gate structure comprising a metal gate and an upper surface of said first dielectric interlayer being substantially flush with an upper surface of said gate; forming an interface layer to cover at least the upper surface of said gate such that the upper surface of said gate is protected from being oxidized; and forming a second dielectric interlayer on said interface layer.
