Abstract
A device may include: a high-k layer disposed on a substrate and over a channel region in the substrate. The high-k layer may include a high-k dielectric material having one or more impurities therein, and the one or more impurities may include at least one of C, Cl, or N. The one or more impurities may have a molecular concentration of less than about 50%. The device may further include a cap layer over the high-k layer over the channel region, the high-k layer separating the cap layer and the substrate.
