Abstract:
A semiconductor device includes an active pattern protruding from a substrate, a gate structure crossing over the active pattern, and source/drain regions disposed on the active pattern at opposite sides of the gate structure. Each of the source/drain regions includes a first epitaxial pattern contacting the active pattern and a second epitaxial pattern on the first epitaxial pattern. The first epitaxial pattern comprises a material having a lattice constant which is the same as that of the substrate, and the second epitaxial pattern comprises a material having a lattice constant greater than that of the first epitaxial pattern.
