A second stress film is also provided. The second stress film covers the second gate electrode and at least a second portion of the third gate electrode. The second stress film has a sufficiently high internal stress characteristic to impart a net tensile stress in a second portion of the semiconductor substrate extending opposite the second gate electrode. The second stress film has an upper surface that is coplanar with an upper surface of the first stress film at a location adjacent the third gate electrode.

    摘要: Example embodiments relate to semiconductor devices having a single body crack stop structure configured to reduce or prevent crack propagation and/or moisture penetration. A semiconductor substrate according to example embodiments may include an active region and a crack stop region surrounding the active region. Interlayer insulating layers may be sequentially stacked on the semiconductor substrate. The interlayer insulating layers may include first dual damascene patterns and a first opening. The first dual damascene patterns may be formed in the interlayer insulating layers so as to be perpendicular to the surface of the semiconductor substrate while exposing a first portion of the semiconductor substrate. The first opening may be formed in the crack stop region and may extend through the interlayer insulating layers to expose a second portion of the semiconductor substrate. First dual damascene metal wirings may be formed in the first dual damascene patterns and may contact the exposed first portion of the semiconductor substrate. A single body first crack stop structure may be formed in the first opening so as to contact the exposed second portion of the semiconductor substrate.
