Zusammenfassung:A semiconductor structure includes a metal gate structure, a first gate spacer disposed on a first side of the metal gate structure, a source/drain feature disposed adjacent to the first gate spacer, a dielectric structure disposed over the source/drain feature, the first gate spacer, and the metal gate structure, and a contact feature disposed in the dielectric structure and electrically connected to the metal gate structure and the source/drain feature. The first gate spacer is between the source/drain feature and the metal gate structure. The contact feature straddles over the first gate spacer and has a tilted sidewall intersecting with the metal gate structure.
