Abstract

See full text

A method for forming an aluminum-doped metal (tantalum or titanium) carbonitride gate electrode for a semiconductor device is described. The method includes providing a substrate containing a dielectric layer thereon, and forming the gate electrode on the dielectric layer in the absence of plasma. The gate electrode is formed by depositing a metal carbonitride film, and adsorbing an atomic layer of an aluminum precursor on the metal carbonitride film. The steps of depositing and adsorbing may be repeated a desired number of times until the aluminum-doped metal carbonitride gate electrode has a desired thickness.
