    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor substrate having first and second regions therein, a first lower semiconductor pattern, which protrudes from the semiconductor substrate in the first region and extends in a first direction across the semiconductor substrate, and a first gate electrode, which extends across the first lower semiconductor pattern and the semiconductor substrate in a second direction. A plurality of semiconductor sheet patterns are provided, which are spaced apart from each other in a third direction to thereby define a vertical stack of semiconductor sheet patterns, on the first lower semiconductor pattern. A first gate insulating film is provided, which separates the plurality of semiconductor sheet patterns from the first gate electrode. A second lower semiconductor pattern is provided, which protrudes from the semiconductor substrate in the second region. A plurality of wire patterns are provided, which are spaced apart from each other on the second lower semiconductor pattern. A second gate insulating film is wrapped around each of the plurality of wire patterns.

    Abstract: A semiconductor device comprises an active pattern on a substrate; a plurality of nanosheets spaced apart from each other; a gate electrode surrounding each of the nanosheets; a field insulating layer surrounding side walls of the active pattern; an interlayer insulating layer on the field insulating layer; a source/drain region comprising a first doping layer on the active pattern, a second doping layer on the first doping layer, and a capping layer forming side walls adjacent to the interlayer insulating layer; a source/drain contact electrically connected to, and on, the source/drain region, and a silicide layer between the source/drain region and the source/drain contact which contacts contact with the second doping layer and extends to an upper surface of the source/drain region. The capping layer extends from an upper surface of the field insulating layer to the upper surface of the source/drain region along side walls of the silicide layer.
