Abstract
An electronic device can include a gate structure. In an embodiment, the gate structure can include a gate electrode including a doped semiconductor material, a metal-containing member, a pair of conductive sidewall spacers. The first metal-containing member can overlie the gate electrode. The conductive sidewall spacers can overlie the gate electrode and along opposite sides of the first metal-containing member. In another embodiment, the gate structure can include a gate electrode, a first metal-containing member overlying the gate electrode, and a second metal-containing member overlying the first metal-containing member. The first metal-containing member can have a length that is greater than the length of the second metal-containing member and substantially the same length as the gate electrode.
