Abstract
A semiconductor device structure, along with methods of forming such, are described. The structure includes a first source/drain region, a second source/drain region adjacent the first source/drain region, an interlayer dielectric layer disposed between the first source/drain region and the second source/drain region, and a conductive feature disposed in the interlayer dielectric layer between the first source/drain region and the second source/drain region. The conductive feature includes a first portion and a second portion extending from the first portion, and an angle is formed between the first portion and the second portion. The angle is less than about 180 degrees. The conductive feature is electrically connected to the first source/drain region.
