FIN FIELD-EFFECT TRANSISTOR AND METHOD OF FORMING THE SAME

Abstract:

A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device includes forming a gate trench over a semiconductor fin, the gate trench including an upper portion and a lower portion. The method includes sequentially forming one or more work function layers, a capping layer, and a glue layer over the gate trench. The glue layer includes a first sub-layer and a second sub-layer that have respective different etching rates with respect to an etching solution. The method includes removing the second sub-layer while leaving a first portion of the first sub-layer filled in the lower portion of the gate trench.
