    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods of forming a self-aligned contact and related apparatus. In some embodiments, the method forms a plurality of gate lines interspersed between a plurality of dielectric lines, wherein the gate lines and the dielectric lines extend in a first direction over an active area. One or more of the plurality of gate lines are into a plurality of gate line sections aligned in the first direction. One or more of the plurality of dielectric lines are cut into a plurality of dielectric lines sections aligned in the first direction. A dummy isolation material is deposited between adjacent dielectric sections in the first direction and between adjacent gate line sections in the first direction. One or more self-aligned metal contacts are then formed by replacing a part of one or more of the plurality of dielectric lines over the active area with a contact metal.

    Abstract: A method of producing a metal gate structure. The method includes forming a gate structure above a semiconductor substrate and performing one or more chemical metal planarization (CMP) processes to planarize the formed gate structure using a CMP tool. An in situ gate etching process is performed in a CMP cleaner of the CMP tool to form a gate recess. A contact etch stop layer (CESL) can then be deposited in the formed gate recess and one or more CMP processes performed to planarize the CESL.
