US Patent 11804528 Semiconductor device

A semiconductor device includes a substrate, a gate structure on the substrate, a source/drain pattern on the substrate, the source/drain pattern being at a side of the gate structure, a source/drain contact filling on and connected to the source/drain pattern, an entire top surface of the source/drain contact filling being lower than a top surface of the gate structure, and a connection contact directly on and connected to the source/drain contact filling, a top surface of the connection contact being higher than the top surface of the gate structure.
