Summary:Self-aligned gate edge and local interconnect structures and methods of fabricating self-aligned gate edge and local interconnect structures are described. In an example, a semiconductor structure includes a semiconductor fin disposed above a substrate and having a length in a first direction. A gate structure is disposed over the semiconductor fin, the gate structure having a first end opposite a second end in a second direction, orthogonal to the first direction. A pair of gate edge isolation structures is centered with the semiconductor fin. A first of the pair of gate edge isolation structures is disposed directly adjacent to the first end of the gate structure, and a second of the pair of gate edge isolation structures is disposed directly adjacent to the second end of the gate structure.
