Nanosheet semiconductor device having a through via extending through a source/drain region between two active region separation cuts

Abstract

A semiconductor device is provided. The semiconductor device includes first through third active patterns extending in and spaced apart from each other along a first direction on a first surface of a substrate; a first gate electrode extending in a second direction on the first active pattern; a first active cut between the first and second active patterns, wherein the first active cut extends in the second direction, and the first active cut is spaced apart from the first gate electrode in the first direction; a second active cut between the second and third active patterns, wherein the second active cut extends in the second direction, and the second active cut is spaced apart from the first active cut in the first direction; and a first through via extending vertically through the second active pattern between the first and second active cuts, and into the substrate.
