Abstract:
A semiconductor device includes a substrate, first and second isolation layers, an insulation layer pattern, and a gate structure. The substrate has a cell region and a peripheral region. The first isolation layer is buried in a first upper portion of the substrate in the peripheral region. The second isolation layer is buried in a second upper portion of the substrate in the cell region, and extends along a first direction substantially parallel to a top surface of the substrate. The insulation layer pattern is buried in the first upper portion, and extends along a second direction substantially parallel to the top surface of the substrate and substantially perpendicular to the first direction. The insulation layer pattern has a lower surface higher than a lower surface of the second isolation layer, and applies a stress to a portion of the substrate adjacent thereto.
Abstract:
A method of forming patterns of a semiconductor device, including partially etching an upper portion of a substrate to form first preliminary active patterns and a first trench, each of the first preliminary active patterns having a first width, and the first trench having a second width of about 2 to 3 times the first width; forming an insulating spacer on each sidewall of the first trench to form a second trench having the first width; forming a second preliminary active pattern in the second trench, the second preliminary active pattern having the first width; partially etching the first and second preliminary active patterns to form a plurality of first active patterns and a plurality of second active patterns and an opening between the plurality of first and second active patterns; and forming an insulation pattern to fill the opening.
Abstract:
An electronic device and a method of extracting a color in the electronic device are provided. The electronic device includes a display unit configured to display an image and a controller configured to extract at least one color value from the image, and to extract a color value satisfying a range of color deviation from the extracted color values.
Abstract:
Semiconductor devices are provided including a substrate defining a gate trench. A buried gate structure is provided in the gate trench and at least fills the gate trench. The buried gate structure includes a gate insulation layer pattern, a gate electrode and a capping layer pattern. First and second impurity regions are provided at portions of the substrate adjacent to the buried gate structure, respectively. At least a portion of each of the first and second impurity regions face a sidewall of the buried gate structure. First and second buried contact structures are provided on the first and second impurity regions, respectively. Each of the first and second buried contact structures includes a metal silicide pattern and a metal pattern, and at least a portion of each of the first and second buried contact structures face to a sidewall of the buried gate structure.
