Abstract

We have proposed a single metal/dual high- <i xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">k</i> gate stack for aggressively scaled complementary metal-insulator-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MISFETs). The threshold voltage is controlled by the dual high- <i xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">k</i> dielectrics, such as MgO- and Al <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sub> O <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">3</sub> -containing HfSiON for n- and p-type MISFETs, respectively. The gate profile is precisely controlled by taking advantage of a common gate electrode, which will suppress the variation in device performance. Based on this device concept, we have actually fabricated W/TiN/HfMgSiON n-type MISFETs and W/TiN/HfAlSiO p-type MISFETs and have successfully demonstrated a low threshold voltage operation for both of n- and p-type MISFETs.
