A process for forming a semiconductor device comprises the steps of providing a semiconductor substrate assembly comprising a semiconductor wafer having an active area formed therein, a plurality of transistor gates each having a TEOS cap thereon and a pair of nitride spacers along each gate, a plurality of conductive plugs each contacting the wafer, and a BPSG layer overlying the transistor gates and contacting the active area. A portion of the BPSG layer is etched thereby exposing the TEOS caps. A portion of the BPSG layer remains on the active area after completion of the etch. Subsequently, a portion of the TEOS caps are removed to expose the transistor gates and a titanium silicide layer is formed simultaneously to contact the transistor gates and the plugs. An inventive structure resulting from the inventive process is also described.
