A method is provided. The method includes forming a first to third gate lines on a substrate, the second gate line formed between the first and third gate lines; forming a gate isolation region to cut the first to third gate lines into two first sub gate lines, two second sub gate lines and two third sub gate lines, respectively; forming a first gate contact on one of the two first sub gate lines; forming a second gate contact on the two second sub gate lines; forming a third gate contact on one of the two third sub gate lines; forming a first metal line to connect the first and third gate contacts; and forming a second metal line. The first to third gate lines extend in a first direction, and the gate isolation region extends in a second direction different from the first direction.
Abstract:
A semiconductor integrated circuit (IC) may comprise at least one cell comprising at least one fin field-effect transistor (FET). The at least one cell may comprise a plurality of fins that extend in a first direction and are arranged in parallel to each other in a second direction that is perpendicular to the first direction. A size of the at least one cell in the second direction may correspond to a number and a pitch of the plurality of fins.

Provided is a method of fabricating a semiconductor device with a field effect transistor. The method may include forming a first gate electrode and a second gate electrode extending substantially parallel to each other and each crossing a PMOSFET region on a substrate and an NMOSFET region on the substrate; forming an interlayered insulating layer covering the first gate electrode and the second gate electrode; patterning the interlayered insulating layer to form a first sub contact hole on the first gate electrode, the first sub contact hole being positioned between the PMOSFET region and the NMOSFET region, when viewed in a plan view; and patterning the interlayered insulating layer to form a first gate contact hole and to expose a top surface of the second gate electrode, wherein the first sub contact hole and the first gate contact hole form a single communication hole.
