A semiconductor device includes a plurality of active fins extending in a first direction, and spaced apart from each other in a second direction, the plurality of active fins having upper surfaces of different respective heights, a gate structure extending in the second across the plurality of active fins, a device isolation film on the substrate, a source/drain region on the plurality of active fins, and including an epitaxial layer on the plurality of active fins, an insulating spacer on an upper surface of the device isolation film and having a lateral asymmetry with respect to a center line of the source/drain region in a cross section taken along the second direction, an interlayer insulating region on the device isolation film and on the gate structure and the source/drain region, and a contact structure in the interlayer insulating region and electrically connected to the source/drain region.

Semiconductor devices

A semiconductor device includes a substrate, a fin structure on the substrate, a gate structure on the fin structure, a gate spacer on at least on side surface of the gate structure, and a source/drain structure on the fin structure, wherein a topmost portion of a bottom surface of the gate spacer is lower than a topmost portion of a top surface of the fin structure, and a topmost portion of a top surface of the source/drain structure is lower than the topmost portion of the top surface of the fin structure.

Semiconductor device

A semiconductor device may include a fin active region including a lower fin active region surrounded by a device isolation layer and an upper fin active region protruding from a top surface of the device isolation layer, a gate pattern disposed on top and side surfaces of the upper fin active region, and a source/drain region formed in the fin active region located at a side of the gate pattern. The gate pattern extends onto the device isolation region. The source/drain region includes a trench and epitaxial layers that fill the trench. Sidewalls of the trench include first sidewalls and second sidewalls that connect the first sidewalls to a bottom surface of the trench. The bottom surface of the trench is located at a lower level than the top surface of the device isolation layer beneath the gate pattern, and the second sidewalls of the trench have inclined {111} planes.
