See full text

Source/drain contact structures that exhibit low contact resistance and improved electromigration properties are provided. After forming a first contact conductor portion comprising a metal having a high resistance to electromigration such as tungsten at a bottom portion of source/drain contact trench to form direct contact with a source/drain region of a field effect transistor, a second contact conductor portion comprising a highly conductive metal such as copper or a copper alloy is formed over the first contact conductor portion.
