Methods of Forming CMOS Transistors with High Conductivity Gate Electrodes

Provided is a method for manufacturing a MOS transistor. The method comprises providing a substrate having a first active region and a second active region; forming a dummy gate stack on the first active region and the second active region, the dummy gate stack comprising a gate dielectric layer and a dummy gate electrode; forming source/drain regions in the first active region and the second active region disposed at both sides of the dummy gate stack; forming a mold insulating layer on the source/drain region; removing the dummy gate electrode on the first active region to form a first trench on the mold insulating layer; forming a first metal pattern to form a second trench at a lower portion of the first trench, and removing the dummy gate electrode on the second active region to from a third trench on the mold insulating layer; and forming a second metal layer in the second trench and the third trench to form a first gate electrode on the first active region and a second gate electrode on the second active region.
