Semiconductor device including fin-fet and etch stop layers

Abstract

A semiconductor device including a fin field effect transistor (fin-FET) includes active fins disposed on a substrate, isolation layers on both sides of the active fins, a gate structure formed to cross the active fins and the isolation layers, source/drain regions on the active fins on sidewalls of the gate structure, a first interlayer insulating layer on the isolation layers in contact with portions of the sidewalls of the gate structure and portions of surfaces of the source/drain regions, an etch stop layer configured to overlap the first interlayer insulating layer, the sidewalls of the gate structure, and the source/drain regions, and contact plugs formed to pass through the etch stop layer to contact the source/drain regions. The source/drain regions have main growth portions in contact with upper surfaces of the active fins.
