A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device includes forming a plurality of fins by forming a plurality of first device isolating trenches repeated at a first pitch in a substrate, forming a plurality of fin-type active areas protruding from a top surface of a first device isolating layer by forming the first device isolating layer in the plurality of first device isolating trenches, forming a plurality of second device isolating trenches at a pitch different from the first pitch by etching a portion of the substrate and the first device isolating layer, and forming a second device isolating layer in the plurality of second device isolating trenches, so as to form a plurality of fin-type active area groups separated from each other with the second device isolating layer therebetween.

Methods of fabricating semiconductor devices including fin-shaped active regions

A semiconductor device, including a first fin-type pattern; a first gate spacer on the first fin-type pattern, intersecting the first fin-type pattern, and including an upper portion and a lower portion; a second gate spacer on the first fin-type pattern, intersecting the first fin-type pattern, and being spaced apart from the first gate spacer; a first trench defined by the first gate spacer and the second gate spacer; a first gate electrode partially filling the first trench; a first capping pattern on the first gate electrode and filling the first trench; and an interlayer insulating layer covering an upper surface of the capping pattern, a width of the upper portion of the first gate spacer decreasing as a distance from an upper surface of the first fin-type pattern increases, and an outer sidewall of the upper portion of the first gate spacer contacting the interlayer insulating layer.

Semiconductor device and method for fabricating the same

Provided are a semiconductor device, which can facilitate a salicide process and can prevent a gate from being damaged due to misalign, and a method of manufacturing of the semiconductor device. The method includes forming a first insulation layer pattern on a substrate having a gate pattern and a source/drain region formed at both sides of the gate pattern, the first insulation layer pattern having an exposed portion of the source/drain region, forming a silicide layer on the exposed source/drain region, forming a second insulation layer on the entire surface of the substrate to cover the first insulation layer pattern and the silicide layer, and forming a contact hole in the second insulation layer to expose the silicide layer.
