Abstract
An integrated circuit (IC) device includes a fin-type active region on a substrate. A mesa-type channel region protrudes from the fin-type active region in a vertical direction. The mesa-type channel region is integrally connected with the fin-type active region. A gate line substantially surrounds a mesa-type channel region on the fin-type active region. A gate dielectric film is between the mesa-type channel region and the gate line. The mesa-type channel region includes: a plurality of round convex portions, which are convex toward the gate line; a concavo-convex sidewall, which includes a portion of each of the plurality of round convex portions and faces the gate line; and at least one void, which is inside the mesa-type channel region.
