    Abstract: Semiconductor devices are provided. A semiconductor device includes a first active pattern on a first region of a substrate, a pair of first source/drain patterns on the first active pattern, a first channel pattern between the pair of first source/drain patterns, and a gate electrode that extends across the first channel pattern. The gate electrode is on an uppermost surface and at least one sidewall of the first channel pattern. The gate electrode includes a first metal pattern including a p-type work function metal, a second metal pattern on the first metal pattern and including an n-type work function metal, a first barrier pattern on the second metal pattern and including an amorphous metal layer that includes tungsten (W), carbon (C), and nitrogen (N), and a second barrier pattern on the first barrier pattern. The second barrier pattern includes the p-type work function metal.

    Abstract: According to various embodiments, an electronic device may comprise: a communication circuit which comprises a first antenna component and a second antenna component to determine a first value through the first antenna component and determine a second value through the second antenna component; a processor; and at least one memory, wherein the at least one memory has instructions stored therein which cause, when executed, the processor to: determine whether a first module disposed in the vicinity of the first antenna component has started operating; compensatively adjust a first value obtained during the operation of the first module, by using a first value obtained before the operation of the first module or a second value obtained during the operation of the first module, in response to the determination as to whether the first module has started operating; and operate the communication circuit according to a first value obtained by the compensation, wherein the first value obtained during the operation of the first module may contain a first noise value resulting from the operation of the first module. Various other embodiments are also possible.

    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a substrate having first and second active regions, first and second active patterns on the first and second active regions, first and second gate electrodes running across the first and second active patterns, and a high-k dielectric layer between the first active pattern and the first gate electrode and between the second active pattern and the second gate electrode. The first gate electrode includes a work function metal pattern and an electrode pattern. The second gate electrode includes a first work function metal pattern, a second work function metal pattern, and an electrode pattern. The first work function metal pattern contains the same impurity as that of the high-k dielectric layer. An impurity concentration of the first work function metal pattern of the second gate electrode is greater than that of the work function metal pattern of the first gate electrode.
