Abstract

A MOSFET includes a semiconductor substrate that has a frontside and a backside; a metal gate at the frontside of the substrate; a first source/drain structure at the frontside of the substrate, adjacent to the metal gate in a first direction; and a first source/drain contact at the frontside of the first source/drain structure. Also included are a backside power rail at the backside of the substrate; and a recessed via that connects the first source/drain contact through the substrate to the backside power rail. The recessed via is adjacent to the first source/drain structure in a direction perpendicular to the first direction. A dielectric cap covers a frontside of the first source/drain contact. A gate contact is disposed at a frontside of the dielectric cap. The gate contact at least partly overlies the first source/drain contact.
