Abstract
A semiconductor device and a method of forming a semiconductor device. The semiconductor device includes a first raised feature in a n-type channel field effect transistor (NFET) region on a substrate, a first doped epitaxial semiconductor material grown on the first raised feature, a first metal contact on the first doped epitaxial semiconductor material, a first metal nitride on the first metal contact, and a first ruthenium (Ru) metal plug on the first metal nitride. The device further includes a second raised feature in a p-type channel field effect transistor (PFET) region on the substrate, a second doped epitaxial semiconductor material grown on the second raised feature, a second metal contact on the second doped epitaxial semiconductor material, a second metal nitride on the second metal contact, and a second ruthenium (Ru) metal plug on the second metal nitride.
