Abstract
When forming sophisticated high-k metal gate electrode structures, the removal of a dielectric cap material may be accomplished with superior process uniformity by using a silicon dioxide material. In other illustrative embodiments, an enhanced spacer regime may be applied, thereby also providing superior implantation conditions for forming drain and source extension regions and drain and source regions.
