Vertical type semiconductor device and method for manufacturing the same

Abstract

A vertical type semiconductor device includes a pillar structure protruding from a top surface of a substrate of a cell array region. Word lines extend while surrounding the pillar structure. Word line contacts contact edges of the word lines functioning as pad portions. An insulating interlayer pattern is provided on the substrate of a peripheral circuit region, which is disposed at an outer peripheral portion of the cell array region. A first contact plug contacts the substrate of the peripheral circuit region. A second contact plug contacts a top surface of the first contact plug and has a top surface aligned on the same plane with the top surfaces of the word line contacts. The first and second contact plugs are stacked in the peripheral circuit region, so the failure of the vertical type semiconductor device is reduced.
