Abstract

The present disclosure provides a semiconductor structure. The semiconductor structure includes a semiconductor substrate; and a gate stack disposed on the semiconductor substrate. The gate stack includes a high k dielectric material layer, a capping layer disposed on the high k dielectric material layer, and a metal layer disposed on the capping layer. The capping layer and the high k dielectric material layer have a footing structure.
