Abstract

A manufacturing method for a metal gate includes providing a substrate having at least a semiconductor device with a conductivity type formed thereon, forming a gate trench in the semiconductor device, forming a work function metal layer having the conductivity type and an intrinsic work function corresponding to the conductivity type in the gate trench, and performing an ion implantation to adjust the intrinsic work function of the work function metal layer to a target work function.
