Semiconductor devices including contact plugs

Abstract

A semiconductor device includes active regions, a gate electrode, respective drain regions, respective source regions, a drain contact structure, a source contact structure, and a gate contact structure. The active regions extend linearly in parallel on a substrate. The gate electrode crosses the active regions. The drain regions are on and/or in the active regions on a first side of the gate electrode. The respective source regions are on and/or in the active regions on a second side of the gate electrode. The drain contact structure is on multiple drain regions. The source contact structure is on multiple source regions. The gate contact structure is on the gate electrode between the drain and source contact structures. The gate contact structure includes a gate plug and an upper gate plug directly on the gate plug. A center of the gate contact structure overlies only one of the active regions.
