A contact between a conductor and a substrate region in a MOSFET SRAM device is formed by a dielectric layer on the surface of a partially completed SRAM device with pass transistors and latch transistors with the dielectric layer being formed above those pass and latch transistors. A thin film transistor gate electrode and an interconnection line are formed on the upper surface of the dielectric layer. A gate oxide layer covers the gate electrode and the interconnection line. A polysilicon conductive layer which covers the gate oxide layer includes a channel region between a source region and a drain region which are formed on opposite sides of the channel region. There is a channel mask formed self-aligned with the channel region formed above the channel region as well as being above the gate electrode. The polysilicon conductive layer is doped aside from the channel mask thereby providing a source region and a drain region on opposite sides of the channel region. A doped interconnect line is also formed in the polysilicon conductive layer. There is a contact which extends through the gate oxide layer between the interconnection line and the polysilicon conductive layer.
