    Abstract: A semiconductor device structure is provided. The semiconductor device structure includes a fin structure formed over a semiconductor substrate and a gate structure formed across the fin structure. The semiconductor device structure also includes an isolation feature over a semiconductor substrate and below a portion of the gate structure and two spacer elements respectively formed over a first sidewall and a second sidewall of the gate structure. In addition, the first sidewall is opposite to the second sidewall and the two spacer elements have hydrophobic surfaces respectively facing the first sidewall and the second sidewall, and the gate structure includes a gate dielectric layer and a gate electrode layer separating the gate dielectric layer from the hydrophobic surfaces of the two spacer elements.

    Abstract: A method includes removing a dummy gate to form a gate trench. A gate dielectric layer is deposited over a bottom and sidewalls of the gate trench. A first work function metal layer is deposited over the gate dielectric layer. A dummy layer is deposited over the first work function metal layer. An impurity is introduced into the dummy layer and the first work function metal layer after the dummy layer is deposited. The dummy layer is removed after the impurity is introduced into the dummy layer and the first work function metal layer. The gate trench is filled with a conductive material after the dummy layer is removed.

    Abstract: A semiconductor structure includes a high-k metal gate structure (HKMG) disposed over a channel region of a semiconductor layer formed over a substrate, where the HKMG includes an interfacial layer disposed over the semiconductor layer, a high-k dielectric layer disposed over the interfacial layer, and a gate electrode disposed over the high-k dielectric layer, where a length of the high-k dielectric layer is greater than a length of the gate electrode and where outer edges of the interfacial layer, the high-k dielectric layer, and the gate electrode form a step profile. The semiconductor structure further includes gate spacers having sidewall portions contacting sidewalls of the gate electrode and bottom portions contacting top portions of the high-k dielectric layer and the interfacial layer, and source/drain features disposed in the semiconductor layer adjacent to the HKMG.

    Abstract: A semiconductor device manufacturing method includes forming fins in first and second regions defined on a substrate. The fins include first fin, second fin, third fin, and fourth fin. A dielectric layer is formed over fins and a work function adjustment layer is formed over dielectric layer. A hard mask is formed covering third and fourth fins. A first conductive material layer is formed over first fin and not over second fin. A second conductive material layer is formed over first and second fins. A first metal gate electrode fill material is formed over first and second fins. The hard mask covering third and fourth fins is removed. A third conductive material layer is formed over third fin and not over fourth fin. A fourth conductive material layer is formed over third and fourth fins, and a second metal gate electrode fill material is formed over third and fourth fins.
