Abstract
A self-aligned contact structure and a method of forming the same include selected neighboring gate electrodes with adjacent sidewalls that are configured to angle toward each other. The angled surfaces of the gate electrodes can be protected using a liner layer that can extend the length of the contact window to define the sidewalls of the contact window.
