Semiconductor device and semiconductor module

Abstract

A semiconductor device includes a first source/drain region and a second source/drain region disposed in an active region of a semiconductor substrate, and a gate structure crossing the active region and disposed between the first and second source/drain regions, the gate structure including a gate electrode having a first part and a second part on the first part, the gate electrode being at a lower level than an upper surface of the active region, an insulating capping pattern on the gate electrode, a gate dielectric between the gate electrode and the active region, and an empty space between the active region and the second part of the gate electrode.
