Abstract

A method provides a gate structure for a plurality of components of a semiconductor device. A silicate layer is provided. In one aspect, the silicate layer is provided on a channel of a CMOS device. A high dielectric constant layer is provided on the silicate layer. The method also includes providing a work function metal layer on the high dielectric constant layer. A low temperature anneal is performed after the high dielectric constant layer is provided. A contact metal layer is provided on the work function metal layer.
