Abstract
Semiconductor structures and fabrication methods are provided. The semiconductor includes a substrate; a plurality of discrete fins on the substrate; a gate structure on the substrate, and across the plurality of discrete fins by covering portions of sidewall surfaces and top surfaces of the plurality of discrete fins; a plurality of doped source/drain layers in the plurality of discrete fins and at both sides of the gate structure; a conductive layer, formed at one or two sides of the gate structure, connecting multiple doped source/drain layers of the plurality of doped source/drain layers, and with a top surface lower than a top surface of the gate structure; and a conductive plug on the conductive layer and in contact with a portion of a surface of the conductive layer.
