Abstract
Disclosed is a semiconductor device including: a substrate including a first active pattern separated into a pair of first active patterns by a trench; a device isolation layer filling the trench; first source/drain patterns on the first active pattern; a first channel pattern connected to the first source/drain patterns and including semiconductor patterns; a first dummy gate electrode that extends while being adjacent to a first sidewall of the trench; a gate electrode that is spaced apart in the first direction from the first dummy gate electrode and extends while running across the first channel pattern, a gate capping pattern on the gate electrode; a gate contact coupled to the gate electrode; and a separation pattern extending between the gate electrode and the first dummy gate electrode. A top surface of the separation pattern is at a same level as that of the gate capping pattern.
