ABSTRACT:
Embodiments herein present a structure, method, etc. for making high density MOSFET circuits with different height contact lines. The MOSFET circuits include a contact line, a first gate layer situated proximate the contact line, and at least one subsequent gate layer situated over the first gate layer. The contact line includes a height that is less than a combined height of the first gate layer and the subsequent gate layer(s). The MOSFET circuits further include gate spacers situated proximate the gate layers and a single contact line spacer situated proximate the contact line. The gate spacers are taller and thicker than the contact line spacer.
