In one embodiment, a tiered gate structure is provided having a substrate including a source, a drain and a gate thereon. The gate includes an elongated gate foot having a first deposition gate material extending from the substrate, the elongated gate foot having a top portion distal from the substrate. The gate head has a second deposition gate material and includes an elongated portion extending downward from the gate head to connect to the top portion of the elongated gate foot.

Tiered gate structure devices

In one implementation, a method for fabricating a tiered structure is provided, which includes forming a source and a drain on a substrate with a gate formed therebetween. Formation of the gate includes depositing a gate foot using a gate foot mask having an opening through it to define the gate foot over the substrate. After forming the gate foot, the gate foot mask is stripped. A gate head mask is formed over the gate foot with the gate head mask exposing a top portion of the gate foot. A gate head is formed on the top portion of the gate foot using the gate head mask. A lift-off process is performed, removing the gate head mask.
