Abstract
A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device, the method including forming dummy gate structures on a substrate; forming spacers on sidewalls of the dummy gate structures; forming a preliminary first interlayer insulation pattern to fill a gap between adjacent spacers; etching an upper portion of the preliminary first interlayer insulation pattern through a first etching process to form a preliminary second interlayer insulation pattern; implanting an ion on the dummy gate structures, the spacers, and the preliminary second interlayer insulation pattern through an ion-implanting process; etching an upper portion of the preliminary second interlayer insulation pattern through a second etching process to form an interlayer insulation pattern having a flat upper surface; and forming a capping pattern on the interlayer insulation pattern to fill a gap between the spacers.
