A semiconductor device including a substrate having a NMOS region and a PMOS region; a metal gate extending continuously along a first direction from the NMOS region to the PMOS region on the substrate; a first source/drain region extending along a second direction adjacent to two sides of the metal gate on the NMOS region; a second source/drain region extending along the second direction adjacent to two sides of the metal gate on the PMOS region; a first contact plug landing on the second source/drain region adjacent to one side of the metal gate; a second contact plug landing on the second source/drain region adjacent to another side of the metal gate; and a third contact plug landing directly on a portion of the metal gate on the PMOS region and between the first contact plug and the second contact plug.

Semiconductor device having contact plug connected to gate structure on PMOS region

A semiconductor device includes a substrate having a NMOS region and a PMOS region; a gate structure extending along a first direction from the NMOS region to the PMOS region on the substrate; and a first contact plug landing directly on the gate structure closer to the PMOS region from a boundary separating the NMOS region and the PMOS region. Preferably, the semiconductor device further includes a first source/drain region extending along a second direction adjacent to two sides of the gate structure on the NMOS region and a second source/drain region extending along the second direction adjacent to two sides of the gate structure on the PMOS region.
