Semiconductor device having reduced contact resistance |
摘要 |
A semiconductor device including at least one self-aligned contact has at least one gate electrode on a bulk substrate layer of the semiconductor device. A gate cap encapsulates the at least one gate electrode. The semiconductor device further includes at least one contact separated from the at least one gate electrode via a portion of the gate cap. The at least one contact includes a metal portion that directly contacts the gate cap. |

1. A semiconductor device including at least one self-aligned contact, comprising:
at least one gate electrode on a bulk substrate layer of the semiconductor device; a gate cap that encapsulates the at least one gate electrode; at least one contact separated from the at least one gate electrode via a portion of the gate cap; and a barrier layer interposed between the at least one contact and a portion of the gate cap such that a metal portion of the contact is formed directly against the gate cap. |
