Abstract
A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor substrate having a first conductivity type, a plurality of pillars extending to a direction perpendicular to a surface of the semiconductor substrate, a stress providing layer formed in the semiconductor substrate between pillars and forming a junction with the semiconductor substrate below each pillar to cause lattice deformation in the pillar, a source region having a second conductivity type opposite to the first conductivity type formed in the semiconductor substrate below the pillar, a drain region having the second conductivity type formed in an upper portion of the pillar, a gate insulating layer formed on a lateral surface of the pillar and a surface of the stress providing layer, and a gate electrode formed to surround the lateral surface of the pillar.
