Method for forming a gate dielectric of a semiconductor device

摘要

Disclosed is a method for forming a gate dielectric in a semiconductor device. The present method includes forming a first dielectric layer on a semiconductor substrate; removing a portion of the first dielectric layer to expose a portion of the substrate; forming a nitride layer on the exposed portion of the substrate and the first dielectric layer; forming a transition metal layer on the nitride layer; and oxidizing the transition metal layer to form a transition metal oxide layer.
