Abstract:
A method of forming a semiconductor device includes forming a source/drain region on a substrate and forming a first interlayer dielectric (ILD) layer over the source/drain region. The method further includes forming a first conductive region within the first ILD layer, selectively removing a portion of the first conductive region to form a concave top surface of the first conductive region. The method also includes forming a second ILD layer over the first ILD layer and forming a second conductive region within the second ILD layer and on the concave top surface. The concave top surface provides a large contact area, and hence reduced contact resistance between the first and second conductive regions.
