Abstract
A semiconductor device includes an etching stop film disposed on a substrate; an interlayer insulating film on the etching stop film; a first trench and a second trench which are spaced apart in a first direction, and penetrate the etching stop film and the interlayer insulating film, the first trench having a side wall that exposes the interlayer insulating film, and the second trench having a side wall that exposes the interlayer insulating film; a first spacer which covers the interlayer insulating film exposed by the side wall of the first trench and does not cover a portion of the side wall of the first trench; a second spacer which covers the interlayer insulating film exposed by the side wall of the second trench and does not cover a portion of the side wall of the second trench; a first barrier layer which extends along a side wall of the first spacer, the portion of the side wall of the first trench not covered by the first spacer, and a bottom surface of the first trench; a first filling film which fills the first trench, on the first barrier layer; a second barrier layer which extends along a side wall of the second spacer, the portion of the side wall of the second trench not covered by the second spacer, and a bottom surface of the second trench; and a second filling film which fills the second trench on the second barrier layer. I In the first direction, a width of the first trench and a width of the second trench are different from each other, and at a first height from a bottom surface of the substrate, a thickness of the first spacer on the side wall of the first trench is different from a thickness of the second spacer on the side wall of the second trench.
