In a method for forming a gate in a semiconductor device, a first preliminary gate structure is formed on a substrate. The first preliminary gate structure includes a gate oxide layer, a polysilicon layer pattern and a tungsten layer pattern sequentially stacked on the substrate. A primary oxidation process is performed using oxygen radicals at a first temperature for adjusting a thickness of the gate oxide layer to form a second preliminary gate structure having tungsten oxide. The tungsten oxide is reduced to a tungsten material using a gas containing hydrogen to form a gate structure. The tungsten oxide may not be formed on the gate structure so that generation of the whiskers may be suppressed. Thus, a short between adjacent wirings may not be generated.

Embodiments of the present invention include semiconductor devices that can be made with relatively low resistance, and methods of forming the semiconductor devices. A resistance reducing layer is formed between a polysilicon layer and a metal layer. As a result, an interface resistance between the polysilicon layer and the metal layer is greatly reduced and a distribution of the interface resistance is very uniform. As a result, a conductive structure including the resistance reducing layer has a greatly reduced sheet resistance to improve electrical characteristics of a semiconductor device having the conductive structure.

Methods of forming a semiconductor device may include forming a tunnel oxide layer on a semiconductor substrate, forming a gate structure on the tunnel oxide layer, forming a leakage barrier oxide, and forming an insulating spacer. More particularly, the tunnel oxide layer may be between the gate structure and the substrate, and the gate structure may include a first gate electrode on the tunnel oxide layer, an inter-gate dielectric on the first gate electrode, and a second gate electrode on the inter-gate dielectric with the inter-gate dielectric between the first and second gate electrodes. The leakage barrier oxide may be formed on sidewalls of the second gate electrode. The insulating spacer may be formed on the leakage barrier oxide with the leakage barrier oxide between the insulating spacer and the sidewalls of the second gate electrode. In addition, the insulating spacer and the leakage barrier oxide may include different materials. Related structures are also discussed.

A method for forming a gate pattern of a semiconductor device can include isotropically etching a gate insulating layer located between a gate conductive layer pattern and a substrate to recess an exposed side wall of the gate insulating layer pattern beyond a lower corner of the gate conductive layer pattern to form an undercut region. The gate conductive layer pattern can be treated to round off the lower corner.
