Abstract
A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor substrate having a fin structure. A gate structure is disposed over the fin structure. A first dielectric layer is disposed on the gate structure and the fin structure. A contact plug is disposed in the first dielectric layer and electrically connected to source/drain region in the fin structure. A second dielectric layer is disposed on the first dielectric layer. the second dielectric layer has a first nitride layer and a first etch stop layer, and the first nitride layer is disposed on the first etch stop layer. A via goes through the second dielectric layer and electrically connected to the contact plug. A metal layer is disposed on the second dielectric layer.
