Abstract
Methods for forming a semiconductor device having dual Schottky barrier heights using a single metal and the resulting device are provided. Embodiments include a semiconductor substrate having an n-FET region and a p-FET region each having source/drain regions; a titanium silicon (Ti—Si) intermix phase Ti liner on an upper surface of the n-FET region source/drain regions; and titanium silicide (TiSi) forming an upper surface of the p-FET region source/drain regions.

A device comprising:
- a substrate having an n-FET region and a p-FET region separated by a shallow trench isolation (STI) region, each of the n-FET and p-FET regions including a gate between source/drain regions;
- an interlayer dielectric (ILD) over the substrate, with trenches formed through the ILD down to the source/drain regions;
- a dopant implanted into the p-FET region source/drain regions through the trenches in the ILD, wherein a surface of the p-FET region source/drain regions is amorphized;
- and
- a titanium-based metal formed in the trenches over the n-FET and p-FET region source/drain regions.
