Abstract

There is disclosed a method of forming a gate electrode in a semiconductor device. The present invention forms a gate insulating film using (TiO2)x(Al2O3)x-1 in which a titanium oxide film (TiO2) having a high dielectric constant and an aluminum oxide film having leakage and interfacial property are mixed. Therefore, the present invention could not only improve the leakage current characteristic of a semiconductor device but also early develop a high-speed device having a high density in the future.
