Semiconductor device with multi-layer contact liner structure

Abstract

Provided is a semiconductor device including an active pattern extended in a first direction, a plurality of gate structures including a gate electrode and a gate spacer disposed to be spaced apart from each other in the first direction on the active pattern and extended in a second direction, a source/drain pattern on the active pattern, a source/drain contact on the source/drain pattern, and a contact liner structure extended along a sidewall of the source/drain contact, being in contact with the sidewall of the source/drain contact. The contact liner structure includes a first contact liner and a second contact liner on the first contact liner. The first contact liner includes a first bottom portion, and a first vertical portion protruded from the first bottom portion and extended in a third direction. A lower surface of the contact liner structure is higher than an upper surface of the source/drain pattern.
