Abstract
A method comprises forming a gate trench between a plurality of gate spacers over a substrate, forming a resistor trench over the substrate, depositing a first layer on a bottom of the gate trench, a bottom of the resistor trench, sidewalls of the gate trench and sidewalls of the resistor trench, depositing a second layer over the first layer, depositing a gate electrode layer over the second layer and applying a chemical mechanical polish process to the gate electrode layer until the gate electrode layer is removed from the resistor trench.
