Abstract:
A semiconductor device includes a fin field effect transistor. The semiconductor device includes a first gate electrode, a first source/drain (S/D) region disposed adjacent to the first gate electrode, a first S/D contact disposed on the first S/D region, a first spacer layer disposed between the first gate electrode and the first S/D region, a first contact layer in contact with the first gate electrode and the first S/D contact, and a first wiring layer integrally formed with the first contact layer. There is no interface between the first contact layer and the first wiring layer in a cross sectional view, and the first contact layer has a smaller area than the first wiring layer in plan view.

Claim (Index 1):
A semiconductor device, comprising:\n a first fin structure and a second fin structure; a first gate electrode disposed over the first fin structure and between first gate sidewall spacers made of an insulating material; a second gate electrode disposed over the second fin structure and between second gate sidewall spacers made of the insulating material; a first source/drain (S/D) region disposed adjacent to the first gate electrode; a second S/D region disposed adjacent to the second gate electrode; a first S/D contact made of a first conductive material and disposed on the first S/D region; a second S/D contact made of the first conductive material and disposed on the second S/D region; a first contact layer made of a second conductive material and being in contact with the first gate electrode and the first S/D contact; a second contact layer made of the second conductive material and being in contact with the second gate electrode; and a third contact layer made of the second conductive material and disposed on the second S/D region, wherein: the third contact layer is disposed above the second fin structure, and the second contact layer is not disposed above the first and second fin structures.
