US Patent 12009429 Semiconductor device and method

In an embodiment, a structure includes: a gate stack over a channel region of a substrate; a source/drain region adjacent the channel region; a first inter-layer dielectric (ILD) layer over the source/drain region; a silicide between the first ILD layer and the source/drain region, the silicide contacting a top surface of the source/drain region and a bottom surface of the source/drain region; and a first source/drain contact having a first portion and a second portion, the first portion of the first source/drain contact disposed between the silicide and the first ILD layer, the second portion of the first source/drain contact extending through the first ILD layer and contacting the silicide.
