Zusammenfassung:A semiconductor device comprising a semiconductor channel, an epitaxial structure coupled to the semiconductor channel, and a gate structure electrically coupled to the semiconductor channel. The semiconductor device further comprises a first interconnect structure electrically coupled to the epitaxial structure and a dielectric layer that contains nitrogen. The dielectric layer comprises a first portion protruding from a nitrogen-containing dielectric capping layer that overlays either the gate structure or the first interconnect structure.
