Abstract:
A semiconductor memory device includes a static random access memory (SRAM) cell that is provided on a substrate and includes a pass-gate transistor, a pull-down transistor, and a pull-up transistor. Each of the pass-gate transistor, the pull-down transistor, and the pull-up transistor includes an active fin protruding above a device isolation layer, a gate electrode on the active fin, and a gate insulating layer between the active fin and the gate electrode. The gate insulating layer of the pull-down transistor includes a first dipole element. The highest concentration of the first dipole element of the gate insulating layer of the pull-down transistor is higher than the highest concentration of the first dipole element of the gate insulating layer of the pass-gate transistor.
Abstract:
A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor substrate including a first region and a second region, a first high-k dielectric film pattern on the first region, a second high-k dielectric film pattern on the second region and having the same thickness as the first high-k dielectric film pattern. First and second work function control film patterns are positioned on the high-k dielectric film patterns of the first region. Third and fourth work function control patterns are positioned on the high-k dielectric film pattern of the second region, the first work function control pattern being thicker than the third work function control pattern and the fourth work function control pattern being thicker than the second.
