Abstract:
A method for forming a semiconductor device structure includes providing a substrate and forming a gate electrode on the substrate. A first contact structure is formed in and on the gate electrode. The first contact structure comprises a first portion and a second portion. The first portion is formed in the gate electrode, and the second portion is formed on the first portion.

Claim (Index 1):
A semiconductor device structure, comprising:\n a gate electrode formed on a substrate, wherein the gate electrode includes a first metal; a metal oxide layer on the gate electrode, wherein the metal oxide layer includes an oxide of the first metal; a conductive feature over a source/drain region adjacent the gate electrode, wherein the conductive feature is level with the gate electrode; a first contact structure over the gate electrode, the first contact structure comprising a first portion and a second portion, wherein a bottom surface of the first portion of the first contact structure is below a bottom surface of the metal oxide layer, and the second portion is formed on the first portion; and a second contact structure interfacing the conductive feature, the second contact structure being with level with the first contact structure.
