Abstract: Gate isolation processes (e.g., gate-to-source/drain contact isolation) are described herein. An exemplary contact gate isolation process may include recessing (e.g., by etching) sidewall portions of a high-k gate dielectric and gate spacers of a gate structure to form a contact gate isolation (CGI) opening that exposes sidewalls of a gate electrode of the gate structure, forming a gate isolation liner along the sidewalls of the gate electrode that partially fills the CGI opening, and forming a gate isolation layer over the gate isolation liner that fills a remainder of the CGI opening. A dielectric constant of the gate isolation liner is less than a dielectric constant of the high-k gate dielectric. A dielectric constant of the gate isolation layer is less than a dielectric constant of the high-k gate dielectric. A dielectric constant of the gate isolation layer may be less than a dielectric constant of the gate isolation layer.

Abstract: A semiconductor device structure and a method for forming a semiconductor device structure are provided. The method includes forming a metal gate stack wrapped around multiple semiconductor nanostructures. The semiconductor nanostructures are beside an epitaxial structure. The method includes forming a dielectric layer over the metal gate stack and the epitaxial structure. The method further includes forming a contact opening in the dielectric layer and forming a protective layer over sidewalls of the contact opening. In addition, the method includes deepening the contact opening so that the contact opening extends into the epitaxial structure after the formation of the protective layer. The method includes forming a conductive contact filling the contact opening.

Abstract: A ROM cell includes first and second three-dimensional transistors. The second transistor is formed above the first transistor, and the channel portions of the first and second transistors overlap each other. First data is stored depending on whether first and second local interconnects connected to the nodes of the first transistor are connected to a same line, or different lines, out of a bit line and a ground power supply line. Second data is stored depending on whether third and fourth local interconnects connected to the nodes of the second transistor are connected to a same line, or different lines, out of a bit line and a ground power supply line.

Abstract: An integrated circuit includes first-type transistors aligned within a first-type active zone, second-type transistors aligned within a second-type active zone, a first power rail and a second power rail extending in a first direction. A first distance between the long edge of the first power rail and the first alignment boundary of the first-type active zone is different from a second distance between the long edge of the second power rail and the first alignment boundary of the second-type active zone. Each of the first distance and the second distance is along a second direction which is perpendicular to the first direction.
