A semiconductor device includes a first source/drain region and a second source/drain region disposed in an active region of a semiconductor substrate, and a gate structure crossing the active region and disposed between the first and second source/drain regions, the gate structure including a gate electrode having a first part and a second part on the first part, the gate electrode being at a lower level than an upper surface of the active region, an insulating capping pattern on the gate electrode, a gate dielectric between the gate electrode and the active region, and an empty space between the active region and the second part of the gate electrode.

Semiconductor device and semiconductor module

A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device includes forming a gate insulation layer pattern on a substrate, forming a sacrificial layer including impurities on the gate insulation layer pattern, annealing the sacrificial layer so that the impurities in the sacrificial layer diffuse into the gate insulation layer pattern, removing the sacrificial layer, and forming a gate electrode on the gate insulation layer pattern.
