  • Patent number: 8633098
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the field of semiconductor manufacturing. The present invention provides a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device, which comprises: providing a semiconductor substrate; forming an interface layer, a gate dielectric layer and a gate electrode on the substrate; forming a metal oxygen absorption layer on the gate electrode; performing a thermal annealing process on the semiconductor device so that the metal oxygen absorption layer absorbs oxygen in the interface layer and the thickness of the interface layer is reduced. By means of the present invention, the thickness of the interface layer can be reduced on one hand, and on the other hand the metal in the metal oxygen absorption layer is made to diffuse into the gate electrode and/or the gate dielectric layer through the annealing process, which further achieves the effects of adjusting the effective work function and controlling the threshold voltage.

  • Patent number: 8563415
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device. After depositing the metal gate electrode material, a layer of oxygen molecule catalyzing layer having a catalyzing function to the oxygen molecules is deposited, and afterwards, a low-temperature PMA annealing process is used to decompose the oxygen molecules in the annealing atmosphere into more active oxygen atoms. These oxygen atoms are diffused into the high-k gate dielectric film through the metal gate to supplement the oxygen vacancies in the high-k film, in order to alleviate oxygen vacancies in the high-k film and improve the quality of the high-k film. According to the present invention, the oxygen vacancies and defects of high-k gate dielectric film will be alleviated, and further, growth of SiOx interface layer having a low dielectric constant caused by the traditional PDA high temperature process may be prevented.
