Semiconductor device

Abstract

A semiconductor device may include PMOSFET and NMOSFET regions spaced apart from each other on a substrate, first and second active patterns provided on the PMOSFET and NMOSFET regions, respectively, a first channel pattern on the first active pattern, a source/drain pattern electrically connected to the first channel pattern, an active contact electrically connected to the source/drain pattern, the active contact including a first conductive pattern and a first barrier pattern enclosing a portion of a side surface and a bottom surface of the first conductive pattern, a gate electrode extending in a direction crossing the first channel pattern, a gate contact electrically connected to the gate electrode, an air gap provided on the first barrier pattern and between the gate contact and the first conductive pattern, and a lower via provided on the active contact. The lower via may be adjacent to the air gap.
