  • Publication number: 20210043754
    Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosure are in the field of advanced integrated circuit structure fabrication and, in particular, 10 nanometer node and smaller integrated circuit structure fabrication and the resulting structures. In an example, an integrated circuit structure includes a semiconductor substrate comprising an N well region having a semiconductor fin protruding therefrom. A trench isolation layer is on the semiconductor substrate around the semiconductor fin, wherein the semiconductor fin extends above the trench isolation layer. A gate dielectric layer is over the semiconductor fin. A conductive layer is over the gate dielectric layer over the semiconductor fin, the conductive layer comprising titanium, nitrogen and oxygen. A P-type metal gate layer is over the conductive layer over the semiconductor fin.
