A semiconductor device is provided. The semiconductor device includes a substrate including a first region and a second region, a first gate structure extending in a first direction on the first region of the substrate, the first gate structure including a first gate insulation film and a first work function film disposed on the first gate insulation film, and a second gate structure extending in the first direction on the second region of the substrate, the second gate structure including a second gate insulation film and a second work function film disposed on the second gate insulation film, wherein a first thickness of the first work function film in a second direction intersecting the first direction is different from a second thickness of the second work function film in the second direction, and wherein a first height of the first work function film in a third direction perpendicular to the first and second directions is different from a second height of the second work function film in the third direction.

Semiconductor device

A semiconductor device includes a substrate having first and second active regions with a field insulating layer therebetween that contacts the first and second active regions, and a gate electrode on the substrate and traversing the first active region, the second active region, and the field insulating layer. The gate electrode includes a first portion over the first active region, a second portion over the second active region, and a third portion in contact with the first and second portions. The gate electrode includes an upper gate electrode having first through third thicknesses in the first through third portions, respectively, where the third thickness is greater than the first thickness, and smaller than the second thickness.
