Abstract

The present application discloses a semiconductor device and a method for forming the same. A semiconductor device includes a substrate, an active region, an isolation structure, a first metal line, a gate structure, a source / drain region, a source / drain contact, and a second metal line. The active region protrudes from the top surface of the substrate. The isolation structure is above the substrate and laterally surrounds the active region. The first metal line is in the isolation structure. The gate structure is above the active region. The source / drain region is in the active region. The source / drain contact is above the active region and electrically connected to the source / drain region. The second metal line is above the gate structure and the source / drain contact, wherein the second metal line vertically overlaps the first metal line.
