    Abstract: A method of forming a logic cell utilizing a TS gate cross-couple construct and the resulting device are provided. Embodiments include forming active fins and dummy fins on a substrate, the dummy fins adjacent to each other and between the active fins; forming STI regions between and next to the active and dummy fins; forming gate structures in parallel across the active and dummy fins; forming a gate cut region by cutting the gate structures between the dummy fins; forming a TS layer between the gate structures, the TS layer crossing the gate cut region; and forming a contact connecting a gate structure and the TS layer on a first side of the gate cut region and forming a contact connecting a gate structure and the TS layer on a second side of the gate cut region, the TS layer and contacts cross coupling the gate structures.

    Abstract: A method for producing self-aligned vias (SAV) is provided. Embodiments include forming a ILOS layer over a dielectric layer; forming pairs of spacers over the ILOS layer, each pair of spacers having a first filler formed between adjacent spacers, and a second filler formed between each pair of spacers; forming and patterning a first OPL to expose one second filler, spacers on opposite sides of the one second filler, and a portion of the first filler adjacent each of the exposed spacers; removing the one second filler to form a SAV, and SAV etching into the ILOS layer; forming a second OPL over the first OPL and in the SAV to form a SAV plug; removing OPL layers and etching into the ILOS layer down to the dielectric layer; forming a third OPL layer in spaces between the TEOS layer; and removing the SAV plug.
