ABSTRACT:
A tungsten polymetal gate is made by forming a gate insulation layer and a polysilicon layer on a semiconductor substrate; depositing a barrier layer on the polysilicon layer; depositing a tungsten nucleation layer on the barrier layer through an ALD process; depositing a tungsten layer on the tungsten nucleation layer through a CVD process; depositing a hard mask layer on the tungsten layer; and etching the hard mask layer, the tungsten layer, the tungsten nucleation layer, the barrier layer, the polysilicon layer, and the gate insulation layer.
