ABSTRACT:
An interconnect structure and its method for fabrication each employ an interconnect formed over and adjacent an active region of a semiconductor substrate. A gate electrode is also formed over the active region. Spacer layers are formed adjoining the interconnect and the gate electrode. A spacer layer adjoining the interconnect is removed and a bridging silicide conductor layer is formed bridging a top surface and a sidewall surface of the interconnect with a surface of the active region.
