Abstract:
One illustrative method disclosed herein includes forming a first transistor for an inverter and forming asymmetrically spaced first and second conductive contact structures that are conductively coupled to the source region and the drain region, respectively, of the transistor. In this example, the first conductive contact structure (for the source region) is positioned a first predetermined target distance from a first side of the gate structure of the transistor, and the second conductive contact structure (for the drain region) is positioned a second predetermined target distance from a second side of the gate structure, wherein the second predetermined target distance is less than the first predetermined target distance.

Claim (Index 4):
The method of  claim 1 , wherein said asymmetrically spaced first and second conductive contact structures are formed such that, in a gate length direction of said first transistor, said asymmetrically spaced first and second conductive contact structures have first and second lateral dimensions, respectively, at said first level, wherein said second lateral dimension is greater than said first lateral dimension.
