Abstract

Provided are a method for fabricating a PMOS transistor and a method for forming a dual gate of a semiconductor device using the same. The method for fabricating a PMOS transistor includes forming a gate insulation layer over a semiconductor substrate; forming a polysilicon layer over the gate insulation layer; and doping the polysilicon layer using a boron (B) containing gas in one of an Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) chamber and a Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) chamber.

Claims (13)

1. A method for fabricating a dual gate of a semiconductor device, the method comprising:

forming a gate insulation layer over a semiconductor substrate;

forming an N-type doped polysilicon layer over the gate insulation layer;

forming a photoresist layer which exposes a PMOS region over the polysilicon layer;

doping the polysilicon layer in the PMOS region to P-type using a boron (B) containing gas in one of an Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) chamber and a Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) chamber;

forming a metal electrode layer over the polysilicon layer after removing the photoresist pattern;

forming a hard mask defining regions to be formed with NMOS and PMOS gates over the metal electrode layer; and

forming the gates of NMOS transistor and PMOS transistor by patterning the metal electrode layer, the polysilicon layer and the gate insulation layer using the hard mask.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein, in the doping of the polysilicon layer in the PMOS region to P-type, a temperature in the chamber is 50 to 450° C.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the doping of the polysilicon layer in the PMOS region to P-type is implemented for 10 to 180 seconds.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein, in the doping of the polysilicon layer in the PMOS region to P-type, a flow rate of the boron containing gas is 50 to 400 sccm.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein, in the doping of the polysilicon layer in the PMOS region to P-type, the boron containing gas is B 2 H 6 gas.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the method further comprises, after forming the gates of the NMOS and PMOS transistors, forming insulation layer spacers at sidewalls of the gates of the NMOS and PMOS transistors.
