Abstract

In a method of forming an integrated circuit, a sacrificial layer is formed over a substrate. The sacrificial layer has a gate trench formed therein and a first layer of a first material formed over the substrate in the gate trench. A second layer of a second material is formed over the first layer in the gate trench. The first and second layers are processed to form a layer of a high-K dielectric material.
