Abstract
A device includes: a complementary transistor including: a first transistor having a first source/drain region; and a second transistor above the first transistor in a vertical direction, and having a second source/drain region, the second transistor being offset from the first transistor in a first direction that is perpendicular to the vertical direction; a first source/drain contact electrically coupled to the first source/drain region; a second source/drain contact electrically coupled to the second source/drain region; and an interconnect structure electrically coupled to the first source/drain contact and the second source/drain contact, and including an oblique portion that extends from the first source/drain contact to the second source/drain contact at an offset angle from the vertical direction.
