Abstract:
A FinFET device structure is provided. The FinFET device structure includes a gate structure formed over a fin structure and an S/D contact structure formed over the fin structure. The FinFET device structure also includes an S/D conductive plug formed over the S/D contact structure, and the S/D conductive plug includes a first barrier layer and a first conductive layer. The FinFET device structure includes a gate contact structure formed over the gate structure, and the gate contact structure includes a second barrier layer and a second conductive layer. The FinFET device structure includes a first isolation layer surrounding the S/D conductive plug, and the first barrier layer is between the first isolation layer and the first conductive layer. A second isolation layer surrounding the gate contact structure, and the second barrier layer is between the second isolation layer and the second conductive layer.

Claim (Index 9):
The fin field effect transistor (FinFET) device structure as claimed in  claim 1 , further comprising:\n a first dielectric layer over the gate structure; an etching stop layer over the first dielectric layer; and a second dielectric layer over the etching stop layer, wherein a top surface of the etching stop layer is higher than a bottom surface of the second isolation layer and lower than a top surface of the first isolation layer.
