1. A method of making an integrated circuit device comprising: forming a conductive layer;forming two or more dielectric layers, each layer comprising at least one of a refractory metal or a non-refractory metal such that the two or more dielectric layers include a refractory metal and a non-refractory metal; andintermixing the two or more dielectric layers to substantially convert the two or more dielectric layers to a dielectric layer of a compound formed of all elements of the two or more dielectric layers in a region adjacent the conductive layer. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein forming two or more dielectric layers includes forming at least one of a refractory metal oxide or a non-refractory metal oxide. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein forming two or more dielectric layers includes forming at least one of a refractory metal nitride or a non-refractory metal nitride. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein forming two or more dielectric layers includes forming at least one of a refractory metal oxynitride or a non-refractory metal oxynitride. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein the forming two or more dielectric layers includes forming at least one of a Ta2O5, a TaN, or a TaON. 6. The method of claim 1, wherein the forming two or more dielectric layers includes forming at least one an Al2O3, an AlN, or an AlON. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein forming two or more dielectric layers includes forming one or more TayAlzOxNw layers, where y, z, x, w are integer values, and where y is 1 or 2, z is 1 or 2, x is 0, 1, 3 or 5, and w is 0 or 1. 8. The method of claim 1, wherein intermixing includes intermixing one or more TayAlzOxNw layers, where y, z, x, w are integer values, and where y is 1 or 2, z is 1 or 2, x is 0, 1, 3 or 5, and w is 0 or 1. 9. The method of claim 1, wherein intermixing includes forming the dielectric layer of the compound formed of all elements of the two or more dielectric layers having greater than 20 atomic % oxygen. 10. The method of claim 9, wherein the forming includes forming the dielectric layer of the compound formed of all elements of the two or more dielectric layers having less than 40 atomic % nitrogen. 11. The method of claim 1, wherein intermixing includes oxidizing the dielectric layer of the compound formed of all elements of the two or more dielectric layers. 12. The method of claim 1, wherein intermixing includes nitridizing the dielectric layer of the compound formed of all elements of the two or more dielectric layers. 13. The method of claim 1, wherein intermixing includes forming the dielectric layer of the compound formed of all elements of the two or more dielectric layers with at least one of a graded oxygen and a graded nitrogen concentration. 14. A method of making an integrated circuit device comprising: forming a conductive layer;forming two or more dielectric layers, each layer comprising at least one of a refractory metal and a non-refractory metal; andintermixing the two or more dielectric layers to form at least a partially homogeneous dielectric layer in a region adjacent the conductive layer, wherein intermixing includes forming the at least a partially homogeneous dielectric layer with at least one of a graded tantalum and a graded aluminum concentration.
