Abstract
A method for etching a gate includes forming a high-k material layer over a substrate; forming an overlying layer over the high-k material layer; performing a first etching process for etching the overlying layer to form an overlying layer pattern; forming a spacer on a sidewall of the overlying layer pattern; and performing a second etching process using plasma including a etch gas and an additive gas, to etch the high-k material layer, wherein an amount of the additive gas is substantially the same as the main etch gas to increase an etch selectivity with respect to the substrate.
