A semiconductor device includes a substrate including first to third fins aligned in a first direction, a first trench arranged between the first fin and the second fin, and a second trench arranged between the second fin and the third fin. The semiconductor device further includes a first field insulating film arranged in the first trench, a second field insulating film formed in the second trench, a first dummy gate arranged on the first field insulating film and a second dummy gate at least partly arranged on the second field insulating film. A lower surface of the second field insulating film is arranged to be lower than a lower surface of the first field insulating film.

A semiconductor device includes a substrate having first, second and third fins longitudinally aligned in a first direction. A first trench extends between the first and second fins, and a second trench extends between the second and third fins. A first portion of field insulating material is disposed in the first trench, and a second portion of field insulating material is disposed in the second trench. An upper surface of the second portion of the field insulating material is recessed in the second trench at a level below uppermost surfaces of the second and third fins. A first dummy gate is disposed on an upper surface of the first portion of the field insulating material, and a second dummy gate at least partially extends into the second trench to the upper surface of the second portion of the field insulating material.
