A semiconductor structure includes a gate structure over a substrate. The semiconductor structure includes an inter-layer dielectric (ILD) over the substrate, wherein an upper portion of the ILD has a higher concentration of silicon atoms than a bottom portion of the ILD.

Semiconductor structure including inter-layer dielectric

A method of fabricating a semiconductor structure. The method includes forming a sacrificial gate structure, depositing a dielectric material, and implanting the dielectric material using a silicon cluster gas. The silicon cluster gas has two or more silicon atoms.
