ABSTRACT:
A method is provided of forming a contact to a semiconductor structure. A current-conducting member is formed which extends horizontally over a first portion of a semiconductor device region but not over a second portion of such semiconductor device region. A first film is formed which extends over the second portion and only partially over the member to expose a contact portion of the member. A first contact via is formed in conductive communication with the contact portion. The first contact via has a silicide-containing region self-aligned to an area of the member contacted by the contact via. A second contact via is formed in conductive communication with the second portion, the second contact via extending through the first film.
