Techniques for preventing leakage of contact material into air-gap spacers during contact formation. For example, a method comprises forming a contact trench on a semiconductor structure over an air-gap spacer and depositing a liner in the contact trench. The liner deposition material fills a portion of the air-gap spacer pinching off the contact trench to the air-gap spacer.
