Abstract:
A semiconductor device including a vertical transistor and a method for manufacturing the same may reduce a cell area in comparison with a conventional layout of 8F2 and 6F2. Also, the method does not require forming a bit line contact, a storage node contact or a landing plug, thereby decreasing the process steps. The semiconductor device including a vertical transistor comprises: an active region formed in a semiconductor substrate; a bit line disposed in the lower portion of the active region; a word line buried in the active region; and a capacitor disposed over the upper portion of the active region and the word line.
