Abstract
The first type of semiconductor device includes a first fin structure extending in a first direction, a first gate, and a first slot contact disposed over the first fin structure. The first gate extends in a second direction and has a first gate dimension measured in the first direction. The first slot contact has a first slot contact dimension measured in the first direction. A second type of semiconductor device includes: a second fin structure extending in a third direction, a second gate, and a second slot contact disposed over the second fin structure. The second gate extends in a fourth direction and has a second gate dimension measured in the third direction. The second slot contact has a second slot contact dimension measured in the third direction. The second slot contact dimension is greater than the second gate dimension and greater than the first slot contact dimension.
