Abstract:
A semiconductor device includes a source/drain region, a source/drain silicide layer formed on the source/drain region, and a first contact disposed over the source/drain silicide layer. The first contact includes a first metal layer, an upper surface of the first metal layer is at least covered by a silicide layer, and the silicide layer includes a same metal element as the first metal layer.

Claim (Index 13):
The semiconductor layer of  claim 7 , wherein the silicide layer partially covers an upper surface of the first contact and the insulating layer is in contact with the silicide layer, and the second contact is in contact with a part of the upper surface not covered by the silicide layer.
