Abstract

A semiconductor structure includes a doped semiconductor material portion, a metal-semiconductor alloy portion contacting the doped semiconductor material portion, a device contact via structure in direct contact with the metal-semiconductor alloy portion, and at least one dielectric material layer laterally surrounding the device contact via structure. The device contact via structure includes a barrier stack and a conductive fill material portion. The barrier stack includes at least two metal nitride layers and at least one nitrogen-containing material layer containing nitrogen and an element selected from silicon or boron.
