ABSTRACT:
A method of forming a semiconductor device is described. First, a substrate is provided. Thereafter, a gate structure including, from bottom to top, a high-k layer, a work function metal layer, a wetting layer, a polysilicon layer and a mask layer is formed on the substrate. Afterwards, a spacer is formed on the sidewall of the gate structure. Source/drain regions are then formed in the substrate beside the gate structure. Further, an interlayer dielectric layer is formed over the substrate. Thereafter, a portion of the interlayer dielectric layer is removed to expose the surface of the mask layer. Afterwards, the mask layer and the polysilicon layer are sequentially removed to expose the surface of the wetting layer. A selective chemical vapor deposition process is then performed, so as to bottom-up deposit a metal layer from the surface of the wetting layer.
