Abstract

A method of forming a gate dielectric includes the steps of forming a gate oxide layer on a substrate, forming a buffer layer over the gate oxide layer and incorporating nitrogen into the gate oxide layer through the buffer layer. A semiconductor device having a gate structure is also provided. The gate includes a nitrogen enriched gate oxide layer formed on a substrate, a silicon nitride or poly-silicon buffer layer formed on the gate oxide layer and a gate electrode formed over the buffer layer.
