Abstract:
One integrated circuit (IC) product disclosed herein includes a first conductive source/drain contact structure of a first transistor and an insulating source/drain cap positioned above at least a portion of an upper surface of the first conductive source/drain contact structure. In one example, the product also includes a gate-to-source/drain (GSD) contact structure that is conductively coupled to the first conductive source/drain contact structure and a first gate structure of a second transistor, wherein an upper surface of the GSD contact structure is positioned at a first level that is at a level above the upper surface of the first conductive source/drain contact structure, and a CB gate contact structure that is conductively coupled to a second gate structure of a third transistor, wherein an upper surface of the CB gate contact structure is positioned at a level that is above the first level.

Claim (Index 5):
The IC product of  claim 1 , further comprising:\n a plurality of additional transistor devices, each of which comprise a separate CB gate contact and a separate gate structure, wherein each of said CB gate contacts is conductively coupled to one of said gate structures; a second metallization layer positioned above said first metallization layer, said second metallization layer comprising:\n a first conductive line and first conductive via positioned in said second metallization layer, said first conductive via being conductively coupled to said CB gate contact structure and said first conductive line; and \n a plurality of second conductive lines and a plurality of second conductive vias positioned in said second metallization layer, wherein each of said plurality of second conductive vias is conductively coupled to one of said separate CB gate contact structures of said plurality of transistor devices.
