Various examples of a buried interconnect line are disclosed herein. In an example, a device includes a fin disposed on a substrate. The fin includes an active device. A plurality of isolation features are disposed on the substrate and below the active device. An interconnect is disposed on the substrate and between the plurality of isolation features such that the interconnect is below a topmost surface of the plurality of isolation features. The interconnect is electrically coupled to the active device. In some such examples, a gate stack of the active device is disposed over a channel region of the active device and is electrically coupled to the interconnect. In some such examples, a source/drain contact is electrically coupled to a source/drain region of the active device, and the source/drain contact is electrically coupled to the interconnect. |
