ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a method of forming an oxide dielectric layer on a tungsten silicide gate structure in a furnace oxidation process by first depositing a thin layer of amorphous silicon on top of the refractory metal silicide gate structure such that the refractory metal silicide is not damaged by the oxidant during the furnace oxidation process. For a tungsten silicide gate structure, a thin layer of amorphous silicon between about 10 .ANG. and about 100 .ANG. thick can be suitably used for such purpose.
