An approach for providing cross-coupling-based designs using diffusion contact structures is disclosed. Embodiments include providing first and second gate structures over a substrate; providing a first gate cut region across the first gate structure, and a second gate cut region across the second gate structure; providing a first gate contact over the first gate structure, and a second gate contact over the second gate structure; and providing a diffusion contact structure between the first and second gate cut regions to couple the first gate contact to the second gate contact.
