STRUCTURE AND METHOD FOR INTEGRATING FRONT END SiCr RESISTORS IN HiK METAL GATE TECHNOLOGIES

An integrated circuit having a replacement HiK metal gate transistor and a front end SiCr resistor. The SiCr resistor replaces the conventional polysilicon resistor in front end processing and is integrated into the contact module. The first level of metal interconnect is located above the SiCr resi...

Zusammenfassung:An integrated circuit having a replacement HiK metal gate transistor and a front end SiCr resistor. The SiCr resistor replaces the conventional polysilicon resistor in front end processing and is integrated into the contact module. The first level of metal interconnect is located above the SiCr resistor. First contacts connect to source/drain regions. Second contacts electrically connect the first level of interconnect to either the SiCr resistor or the metal replacement gate.
