Abstract
Field Effect Transistors (FETs), Integrated Circuit (IC) chips including the FETs, and a method of forming the FETs on ICs. FET locations are defined on a layered semiconductor wafer, preferably a Silicon On Insulator (SOI) wafer. One or more FET locations are defined as silicon gate locations and remaining as Replacement Metal Gate (RMG) FET locations with at least one of each on the IC. Polysilicon gates are formed in all FET locations. Gates in silicon gate locations are tailored, e.g., doped and silicided. Remaining polysilicon gates are replaced with metal in RMG FET locations. FETs are connected together into circuits with RMG FETs being connected to silicon gate FETs.
