A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device includes forming a storage node hole passing through an upper support layer, a bowing prevention layer and an upper mold layer using a dry etching process, forming a lower electrode in the storage node hole, patterning the upper support layer and the bowing prevention layer to expose a portion of the upper mold layer, removing the upper mold layer and at least a portion of the bowing prevention layer using a first wet etching process, and sequentially forming a dielectric layer and an upper electrode that cover the lower electrode. An etch rate of the bowing prevention layer may be substantially equal to an etch rate of the upper support layer during the dry etching process. An etch rate of the bowing prevention layer may be higher than an etch rate of the upper support layer during the first wet etching process.

Semiconductor device and method for manufacturing the same

In a method of fabricating a semiconductor device, isolation structures are formed in a substrate to define active regions. Conductive structures are formed on the substrate to cross over at least two of the active regions and the isolation structures, the conductive structures extending in a first direction. An interfacial layer is conformally formed on the substrate in contact with the conductive structures. A first insulation layer is provided on the interfacial layer, wherein the first insulation layer is formed using a flowable chemical vapor deposition (CVD) process, and wherein the interfacial layer reduces a tensile stress generated at an interface between the conductive structures and the first insulation layer while the first insulation layer is formed.
