Abstract:
The invention provides a semiconductor device. The semiconductor device includes a fin field effect transistor (finFET) array including finFET units. Each of the finFET units includes a substrate having a fin along a first direction. A first metal strip pattern and a second metal strip pattern are formed on the fin, extending along a second direction that is different from the first direction. The first and second metal strip patterns are conformally formed on opposite sidewalls and a top surface of the fin, respectively. A first contact and a second contact are formed on the fin. The first and second metal strip patterns are disposed between the first and second contacts. A first dummy contact is formed on the fin, sandwiched between the first and second metal strip patterns.
