Abstract
An integrated circuit device includes an insulating structure, a source/drain region on the insulating structure, a pair of bottom semiconductor sheets being spaced apart from each other with the source/drain region therebetween in a first horizontal direction, a pair of channel regions spaced apart from the insulating structure with the bottom semiconductor sheets therebetween, a pair of gate lines respectively extending on the pair of channel regions on the bottom semiconductor sheets and extending longitudinally in a second horizontal direction perpendicular to the first horizontal direction, and a backside contact structure extending through the insulating structure to contact a bottom surface of the source/drain region, the backside contact structure including a first contact portion that has a width in the first horizontal direction increasing toward the source/drain region and a second contact portion that has a width in the first horizontal direction decreasing toward the source/drain region.
