Abstract

A semiconductor device has a pair of gate electrodes extending adjacent to and non-parallel to each other, a source and/or drain region located between the pair of gate electrodes for forming a pair of transistors with the gate electrodes, and a contact electrode disposed between the pair of gate electrodes in contact with the source and/or drain region in a contact area so that the center of the contact area is shifted from the center of the source and/or drain region in a direction along which the distance between the pair of gate electrodes becomes greater.
