Abstract
A semiconductor device includes a plurality of gate caps over a plurality of gate regions, gate spacers over sidewalls of the plurality of gate regions and the plurality of gate caps, a backside contact under a first source and drain region and a dielectric cap over the first source and drain region. The first source and drain region is located between two adjacent gate regions of the plurality of gate regions.
