Abstract:
A semiconductor device includes a substrate including active patterns, a device isolation layer filling a trench between a pair of adjacent active patterns, a gate electrode on the active patterns, and a gate contact on the gate electrode. Each active pattern includes source/drain patterns at opposite sides of the gate electrode. The gate contact includes a first portion vertically overlapping with the gate electrode, and a second portion laterally extending from the first portion such that the second portion vertically overlaps with the device isolation layer and does not vertically overlap with the gate electrode. A bottom surface of the second portion is distal to the substrate in relation to a bottom surface of the first portion. The bottom surface of the second portion is distal to the substrate in relation to a top of a source/drain pattern that is adjacent to the second portion.

Claim (Index 7):
The semiconductor device of  claim 1 , wherein further comprising:\n a plurality of gate electrodes on the plurality of active patterns, the plurality of gate electrodes including the gate electrode, wherein the gate contact is connected in common to adjacent gate electrodes of the plurality of gate electrodes via separate, respective first portions vertically overlapping with the adjacent gate electrodes, and wherein the second portion of the gate contact is between the first portions.
