A semiconductor device includes a substrate, a first active fin on the substrate, the first active fin including a first side surface and a second side surface opposing the first side surface, a second active fin on the substrate, the second active fin including a third side surface facing the second side surface and a fourth side surface opposing the third side surface of the second active fin, a first isolation layer on the first side surface of the first active fin, a second isolation layer between the second side surface of the first active fin and the third side surface of the second active fin, a third isolation layer on the fourth side surface of the second active fin and a merged source/drain on the first and second active fins.

Semiconductor device having asymmetrical source/drain

A semiconductor device includes a substrate, an active fin protruding from the substrate, and an asymmetric diamond-shaped source/drain disposed on an upper surface of the active fin. The source/drain includes a first crystal growth portion and a second crystal growth portion sharing a plane with the first crystal growth portion and having a lower surface disposed at a lower level than a lower surface of the first crystal growth portion.
