    Abstract: A pattern formation method includes forming a first capping layer on a substrate, forming a recess that penetrates the first capping layer and an upper portion of the substrate, such that a non-penetrated portion of the first capping layer constitutes a first capping pattern, forming a second capping pattern that covers an inner sidewall of the recess, and forming a stack structure in the recess, such that the stack structure includes first stack patterns and second stack patterns that are alternately stacked, and the second capping pattern is between the substrate and a lateral surface of the stack structure.

    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes an active region on a substrate extending in a first direction, the active region having an upper surface and sidewalls, a plurality of channel layers above the active region to be vertically spaced apart from each other, a gate electrode extending in a second direction to intersect the active region and partially surrounding the plurality of channel layers, and a source/drain region on the active region on at least one side of the gate electrode and in contact with the plurality of channel layers, and extending from the sidewalls of the active region having a major width in the second direction in a first region adjacent to a lowermost channel layer adjacent to the active region among the plurality of channel layer.

    Abstract: A semiconductor device may include a substrate including an active pattern, a conductive filling pattern on an impurity region at an upper portion of the active pattern, a first spacer and a second spacer stacked on a sidewall of the conductive filling pattern in a horizontal direction, and a bit line structure on the conductive filling pattern. The impurity region may include impurities. The horizontal direction may be parallel to an upper surface of the substrate. The first spacer may include an insulating material containing the impurities.

    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes an active region extending in a first direction on a substrate, a plurality of channel layers vertically spaced apart from each other on the active region and including a semiconductor material, a gate structure extending in a second direction on the substrate, and a source/drain region disposed on the active region on at least one side of the gate structure. The gate structure intersects the active region and the plurality of channel layers, and surrounds the plurality of channel layers. The source/drain region contacts the plurality of channel layers and includes first impurities. In at least a portion of the plurality of channel layers, a lower region adjacent to the active region includes the first impurities and second impurities at a first concentration, and an upper region includes the first impurities and the second impurities at a second concentration lower than the first concentration.

    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a first active fin protruding from a substrate, a first gate pattern covering a side surface and a top surface of the first active fin, and first source/drain patterns at opposite sides of the first gate pattern, each of the first source/drain patterns including a first lower side and a second lower side spaced apart from each other, a first upper side extended from the first lower side, a second upper side extended from the second lower side. The first lower side may be inclined at a first angle relative to a top surface of the substrate, the second upper side may be inclined at a second angle relative to the top surface of the substrate, and the first angle may be greater than the second angle.
