Abstract

According to one embodiment, a semiconductor device includes a transistor having a diffusion layer extending along a surface of a substrate and a gate electrode arranged above the diffusion layer; and contacts having elongated bottom surfaces connected to the diffusion layer on both sides of the gate electrode, in which the contacts are arranged so that the bottom surfaces of the contacts are not aligned in a straight line with an extension direction of the diffusion layer.
