    Abstract: Disclosed is a novel system and method to form local interconnects in a continuity test structure. The method begins with a first set of transistor gate lines and a second set of transistor gate lines are formed. Next, a first group of two or more local interconnect lines landing on transistor gates and formed substantially perpendicular to the first set of transistor gate lines and electrically coupled therewith is formed using a first lithography pass. A second group of two or more local interconnect lines landing and formed substantially perpendicular to the second set of transistor gate lines and electrically coupled therewith is formed during second lithography pass. For some technologies, a third set of transistor gate lines is formed along with a third group using a third lithography pass.

    Abstract: A FinFET structure is formed by forming a hardmask layer on a substrate including a silicon-containing layer on an insulating layer. The hardmask layer includes first, second and third layers on the silicon-containing layer. An array of fins is formed from the hardmask layer and the silicon-containing layer. A gate is formed covering a portion but not all of a length of each of the array of fins. The portion covers each of the fins in the array. The gate defines source/drain regions on either side of the gate. A spacer is formed on each side of the gate, the forming of the spacer performed to remove the third layer from portions of the fins in the source/drain regions. The second layer of the hardmask layer is removed from the portions of the fins in the source/drain regions, and the fins in the source/drain regions are merged.
