Semiconductor field effect transistors and manufacturing method thereof

Abstract

A semiconductor device includes a substrate, source/drain contacts, gate structures, conductive elements, and a first stop layer. The substrate has source/drain regions formed therein. The source/drain contacts are over the substrate and each of the source/drain contacts is electrically connected to the respective source/drain region. The gate structures are arranged in parallel on the substrate. The source/drain regions are arranged at opposite sides of the gate structures. Each of the gate structures is sandwiched between two most adjacent source/drain contacts. The conductive element is on the source/drain contacts and crosses over the gate structures. The conductive element is overlapped with at least one gate structure and at least two most adjacent source/drain contacts and is electrically connected to the at least two most adjacent source/drain contacts. The first stop layer is located between the gate structures and the conductive elements to electrically insulate the gate structures from the conductive elements.
