Abstract

A process and a device for fabricating a semiconductor device having a gate dielectric made of high-k material, includes a step of depositing, directly on the gate dielectric, a first layer of Si1−xGex, where 0.5<x≦1, at a temperature substantially below the temperature at which a poly-Si is deposited by thermal chemical vapor deposition (CVD).
