Patent 11908744 was granted and assigned to Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company on February, 2024 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
Semiconductor device structures are provided. The semiconductor device structure includes a substrate and a first fin structure protruding from the substrate. The semiconductor device structure further includes an isolation layer formed around the first fin structure and covering a sidewall of the first fin structure and a gate stack formed over the first fin structure and the isolation layer. The semiconductor device structure further includes a first source/drain structure formed over the first fin structure and spaced apart from the gate stack and a contact structure formed over the first source/drain structure. The semiconductor device structure includes a dielectric structure formed through the contact structure. In addition, the contact structure and the dielectric structure has a first slope interface that slopes downwardly from a top surface of the contact structure to a top surface of the isolation layer.
