Abstract
Provided is a semiconductor device includes a gate electrode, a gate dielectric layer, a channel layer, an insulating layer, a first source/drain electrode and a second source/drain electrode, a second dielectric layer, and a stop segment. The gate electrode is located within a first dielectric layer that overlies a substrate. The gate dielectric layer is located over the gate electrode. The channel layer is located on the gate dielectric layer. The insulating layer is located over the channel layer. The first source/drain electrode and the second source/drain electrode are located in the insulating layer, and connected to the channel layer. The second dielectric layer is beside one of the first source/drain electrode and the second source/drain electrode. The stop segment is embedded in the second dielectric layer.
