The effect of Al incorporation on the effective work function(EWF) of TiN metal gate was systematically investigated.Metal-oxide-semiconductor(MOS) capacitors with W/TiN/Al/TiN gate stacks were used to fulfill this purpose.Different thickness ratios of Al to TiN and different post metal annealing(PMA) conditions were employed.Significant shift of work function towards to Si conduction band was observed,which was suitable for NMOS and the magnitude of shift depends on the processing conditions.
