Fabrication of mid-cap metal gates compatible with ultra-thin dielectrics

摘要

A method of fabricating a mid-gap workfunction tungsten gate or W electrode directly onto a gate dielectric material for use in high speed/high density advanced MOS and CMOS devices is provided which utilizes low temperature/low pressure CVD of a tungsten carbonyl. MOS and CMOS devices containing one or more of the CVD W gates or W electrodes manufactured by the present invention are also provided herein.
