A recessed channel array transistor may include a substrate, a gate oxide layer, a gate electrode and source/drain regions. The substrate may have an active region and an isolation region. A recess may be formed in the active region. The gate oxide layer may be formed on the recess and the substrate. The gate oxide layer may include a first portion on an intersection between a side end of the recess and a sidewall of the active region and a second portion on a side surface of the recess. The first portion may include a thickness greater than about 70% of a thickness of the second portion. The gate electrode may be formed on the gate oxide layer. The source/drain regions may be formed in the substrate. Thus, the recessed channel array transistor may have a decreased leakage current and an increased on-current.

In a semiconductor device and a method of manufacturing the semiconductor device, preliminary isolation regions having protruded upper portions are formed on a substrate to define an active region. After an insulation layer is formed on the active region, a first conductive layer is formed on the insulation layer. The protruded upper portions of the preliminary isolation regions are removed to form isolation regions on the substrate and to expose sidewalls of the first conductive layer, and compensation members are formed on edge portions of the insulation layer. The compensation members may complement the edge portions of the insulation layer that have thicknesses substantially thinner than that of a center portion of the insulation layer, and may prevent deterioration of the insulation layer. Furthermore, the first conductive layer having a width substantially greater than that of the active region may enhance a coupling ratio of the semiconductor device. Thus, the semiconductor device may have improved electrical characteristics and reliability.

A semiconductor device includes a gate structure on a channel region of a semiconductor substrate adjacent to a source/drain region therein and a surface insulation layer directly on the source/drain region of the substrate adjacent to the gate structure. The device further includes a spacer on a sidewall of the gate structure adjacent to the source/drain region. A portion of the surface insulation layer adjacent the gate structure is sandwiched between the substrate and the spacer. An interface between the surface insulation layer and the source/drain region includes a plurality of interfacial states. Portions of the source/drain region immediately adjacent the interface define a carrier accumulation layer having a greater carrier concentration than other portions thereof. The carrier accumulation layer extends along the interface under the spacer. Related methods are also discussed.

A method of fabricating a transistor device includes forming a non-crystalline germanium layer on a seed layer. The non-crystalline germanium layer is selectively locally heated to about a melting point thereof to form a single-crystalline germanium layer on the seed layer. The non-crystalline germanium layer may be selectively locally heated, for example, by applying a laser to a portion of the non-crystalline germanium layer. Related devices are also discussed.

摘要:
In a fin field effect transistor (FET), an active pattern protrudes in a vertical direction from a substrate and extends across the substrate in a first horizontal direction. A first silicon nitride pattern is formed on the active pattern, and a first oxide pattern and a second silicon nitride pattern are sequentially formed on the substrate and on a sidewall of a lower portion of the active pattern. A device isolation layer is formed on the second silicon nitride pattern, and a top surface of the device isolation layer is coplanar with top surfaces of the oxide pattern and the second silicon nitride pattern. A buffer pattern having an etching selectivity with respect to the second silicon nitride pattern is formed between the first oxide pattern and the second silicon nitride pattern. Internal stresses that can be generated in sidewalls of the active pattern are sufficiently released and an original shape of the first silicon nitride pattern remains unchanged, thereby improving electrical characteristics of the fin FET.
