Methods of fabricating a semiconductor device having a node contact structure of a cmos inverter

Abstract

In one embodiment, an intrinsic single crystalline semiconductor plug is formed to pass through a lower insulating layer using a selective epitaxial growth process employing a node impurity region as a seed layer, and a single crystalline semiconductor body pattern is formed on the lower insulating layer using the intrinsic single crystalline semiconductor plug as a seed layer. When the recessed single crystalline semiconductor plug is doped with impurities having the same conductivity type as the node impurity region, a peripheral impurity region is prevented from being counter-doped. As a result, it is possible to implement a high performance semiconductor device that requires a single crystalline thin film transistor as well as a node contact structure with ohmic contact.
