               1. A semiconductor device comprising: 
            a first conductive layer; 
                a second conductive layer; 
                a dielectric layer stack between the first conductive layer and the second conductive layer; 
                a dielectric interface layer between the dielectric layer stack and the second conductive layer; and 
                a high work function interface layer between the dielectric interface layer and the second conductive layer, 
                wherein each of the dielectric layer stack and the dielectric interface layer comprises an oxide-based material, and the high work function interface layer comprises a nitride-based material.
