Abstract

A semiconductor device includes an insulating layer embedding a gate electrode and overlying a substrate, a stack of a gate dielectric including a gate dielectric material, a dielectric diffusion barrier liner including a dielectric diffusion barrier material, and an active layer overlying a top surface of the gate electrode, and a source electrode and a drain electrode contacting a respective portion of a top surface of the active layer. The dielectric diffusion barrier material is different from the gate dielectric material and is selected from a dielectric metal oxide material and a dielectric compound of silicon, and suppresses loss of metallic elements during subsequent anneal processes.
