Abstract
Methods are provided for fabricating integrated circuits having controlled threshold voltages. In accordance with one embodiment a method includes forming a gate dielectric overlying an N-doped silicon substrate and depositing a layer of titanium nitride and a layer of tantalum nitride overlying the gate dielectric. A sub-monolayer of tantalum oxide is deposited overlying the layer of tantalum nitride by a process of atomic layer deposition, and oxygen is diffused from the tantalum oxide through the tantalum nitride and titanium nitride.
