Abstract
Disclosed is a semiconductor device including a substrate including first and second active regions, a device isolation layer on the substrate and defining first and second active patterns, first and second gate electrodes running across the first and second active regions and aligned with each other, first and second source/drain patterns on the first and second active patterns, a first active contact connecting the first and second source/drain patterns to each other, and a gate cutting pattern between the first and second gate electrodes. An upper portion of the first active contact includes first and second upper dielectric patterns. The first active contact has a minimum width at a portion between the first and second upper dielectric patterns. A minimum width of the gate cutting pattern is a second width. A ratio of the first width to the second width is in a range of 0.8 to 1.2.
