Integrated circuit devices including a vertical field-effect transistor and methods of forming the same

Abstract

Integrated circuit devices and methods of forming the same are provided. Integrated circuit devices may include a first active region including a first vertical field effect transistor (VFET), a second active region including a second VFET, and a diffusion break between the first active region and the second active region on a substrate. The diffusion break may include first and second isolation layers in the substrate and a diffusion break channel region protruding from a portion of the substrate. The portion of the substrate may be between the first isolation layer and the second isolation layer. In some embodiments, the first and second isolation layers may be adjacent to respective opposing sidewalls of the diffusion break channel region.
