Abstract

A semiconductor device is provided for implementing at least one logic element. The semiconductor device includes a semiconductor substrate with a first transistor and a second transistor formed on the semiconductor substrate. Each of the transistors comprises a source, a drain, and a gate. A trench silicide layer electrically connects one of the source or the drain of the first transistor to one of the source or the drain of the second transistor.
