Abstract:
A device includes a first nanostructure; a second nanostructure over the first nanostructure; a high-k gate dielectric around the first nanostructure and the second nanostructure, the high-k gate dielectric having a first portion on a top surface of the first nanostructure and a second portion on a bottom surface of the second nanostructure; and a gate electrode over the high-k gate dielectric. The gate electrode comprises: a first work function metal around the first nanostructure and the second nanostructure, the first work function metal filling a region between the first portion of the high-k gate dielectric and the second portion of the high-k gate dielectric; and a tungsten layer over the first work function metal, the tungsten layer being free of fluorine.
