Semiconductor structures and methods for manufacturing the same are provided. The semiconductor structure includes a substrate and nanostructures formed over the substrate. The semiconductor structure also includes a gate structure wrapping around the nanostructures and a first dielectric feature separating the gate structure into a first portion and a second portion. The semiconductor structure also includes a metal layer formed over the gate structure. In addition, top surfaces of the first portion and the second portion of the gate structure and a top surface of the first dielectric feature are covered by the metal layer.
