    Abstract: In the non-volatile memory device, a first isolation layer is formed to have a plurality of depressions each having a predetermined depth from an upper surface of the semiconductor substrate. A fin type first active region is defined by the first isolation layer and has one or more inflected portions at its sidewalls exposed from the first isolation layer, where the first active region is divided into an upper part and a lower part by the inflected portions and a width of the upper part is narrower than that of the lower part. A tunneling insulation layer is formed on the first active region. A storage node layer is formed on the tunneling insulation layer. Also, a blocking insulation layer is formed on the storage node layer, and a control gate electrode is formed on the blocking insulation layer.

    Abstract: A nonvolatile memory device includes a semiconductor substrate and a device isolation layer on the semiconductor substrate. A fin-shaped active region is formed between portions of the device isolation layer. A sidewall protection layer is formed on the sidewall of the fin-shaped active region where source and drain regions are formed. Thus, it may be possible to reduce the likelihood of an undesirable connection between an interconnection layer connected to the source and drain regions and a lower sidewall of the active region so that charge leakage from the interconnection layer to a substrate can be prevented or reduced. The sidewall protection layer may be formed using the device isolation layer. Alternatively, an insulating layer having an etch selectivity with respect to an interlayer insulating layer may be formed on the device isolation layer so as to cover the sidewall of the active region.
