Abstract:
A semiconductor device includes a substrate including active patterns, a device isolation layer filling a trench between a pair of adjacent active patterns, a gate electrode on the active patterns, and a gate contact on the gate electrode. Each active pattern includes source/drain patterns at opposite sides of the gate electrode. The gate contact includes a first portion vertically overlapping with the gate electrode, and a second portion laterally extending from the first portion such that the second portion vertically overlaps with the device isolation layer and does not vertically overlap with the gate electrode. A bottom surface of the second portion is distal to the substrate in relation to a bottom surface of the first portion. The bottom surface of the second portion is distal to the substrate in relation to a top of a source/drain pattern that is adjacent to the second portion.

Claim (Index 16):
A semiconductor device comprising:\n a static random access memory (SRAM) cell on a substrate, wherein the SRAM cell includes first and second access transistors;\n first and second pull-up transistors; and \n first and second pull-down transistors, \n wherein a gate electrode of the first access transistor is electrically connected to a word line through a gate contact and a via on the gate contact, \n wherein the gate contact includes\n a first portion vertically overlapping with the gate electrode, and \n a second portion laterally extending from the first portion, \n wherein the via is on the second portion, and wherein a bottom surface of the second portion is distal to the substrate in relation to a bottom surface of the first portion.
