Zusammenfassung:A gate structure includes a gate dielectric layer over a semiconductor workpiece. The gate structure further includes a work function layer over the gate dielectric layer, wherein the work function layer has a U-shape profile. The gate structure further includes an adhesion layer over the work function layer, wherein a surface of the adhesion layer farthest from the work function layer is substantially free of oxygen atoms. The gate structure further includes a conductive layer over the adhesion layer, wherein the conductive layer has an I-shape profile.
