Claim 10:
11. A semiconductor structure, comprising:
a first conductive pattern extending in a first direction;
a second conductive pattern extending in the first direction;
a third conductive pattern extending in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction, a first end and a second end of the third conductive pattern connected to the first conductive pattern and the second conductive pattern, respectively;
a fourth conductive pattern located between the first and second conductive patterns and extending in the first direction;
a fifth conductive pattern located between the first and second conductive patterns and extending in the first direction, the fifth conductive pattern aligned with the fourth conductive pattern in the first direction; and
wherein the third conductive pattern is located between the fourth conductive pattern and the fifth conductive pattern in the first direction, and wherein a distance between the fourth conductive pattern and the first conductive pattern is equal to a minimum pattern pitch, and a distance between the fourth conductive pattern and the second conductive pattern is equal to the minimum pattern pitch.
