Abstract
According to some embodiments of the invention, transistors of a semiconductor device have a channel region in a channel-portion hole. Methods include forming embodiments of the transistor having a channel-portion hole disposed in a semiconductor substrate. A channel-portion trench pad and a channel-portion layer are sequentially formed at a lower portion of the channel-portion hole. A word line insulating layer pattern and a word line pattern are sequentially stacked on the channel-portion layer and fill the channel-portion hole, disposed on the semiconductor substrate. The channel-portion layer is formed to contact the semiconductor substrate through a portion of sidewall of the channel-portion hole, and forms a channel region under the word line pattern. Punchthrough is prevented between electrode impurity regions corresponding to source and drain regions.
