Semiconductor devices and methods of manufacturing the same

Abstract

A semiconductor device includes bit line structures on a substrate. Each bit line structure extends in a second direction, and the bit line structures are spaced apart from each other in a first direction. The semiconductor device further includes semiconductor patterns spaced apart from each other in the second direction on each of the bit line structures, insulating interlayer patterns between neighboring ones of the semiconductor patterns in the first direction, and word lines spaced apart from each other in the second direction on the bit line structures. Each word line extends in the first direction adjacent to the semiconductor patterns. The semiconductor device further includes capacitors disposed on and electrically connected to the semiconductor patterns, respectively. A seam extending in the second direction is formed in each of the insulating interlayer patterns.
