摘要:
Integrated circuit devices are provided including a first single-crystalline layer and an insulating layer pattern on the first single-crystalline layer. The insulating layer pattern has an opening therein that partially exposes the first single-crystalline layer. A seed layer is in the opening. A second single-crystalline layer is on the insulating layer pattern and the seed layer. The second single-crystalline layer has a crystalline structure substantially the same as that of the seed layer. A transcription-preventing pattern is on the second single-crystalline layer and a third single-crystalline layer on the transcription-preventing pattern and the second single-crystalline layer. The transcription-preventing pattern is configured to limit transcription of defective portions in the second single-crystalline layer into the third single-crystalline layer.

Methods for forming semiconductor devices are provided. A semiconductor substrate is etched such that the semiconductor substrate defines a trench and a preliminary active pattern. The trench has a floor and a sidewall. An insulating layer is provided on the floor and the sidewall of the trench and a spacer is formed on the insulating layer such that the spacer is on the sidewall of the trench and on a portion of the floor of the trench. The insulating layer is removed on the floor of the trench and beneath the spacer such that a portion of the floor of the trench is at least partially exposed, the spacer is spaced apart from the floor of the trench and a portion of the preliminary active pattern is partially exposed. A portion of the exposed portion of the preliminary active pattern is partially removed to provide an active pattern that defines a recessed portion beneath the spacer. A buried insulating layer is formed in the recessed portion of the active pattern. Related devices are also provided.

In a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device, a string structure including a selection transistor and a memory cell on a substrate. An insulation layer pattern is formed on the substrate to cover the string structure. The insulation layer pattern includes at least one opening exposing a portion of the substrate adjacent to the selection transistor. A seed layer including a single-crystalline material is formed in the opening. An amorphous thin film including an amorphous material is formed on the insulation layer pattern and the seed layer. The amorphous thin film is transformed into a single-crystalline thin film, using the single-crystalline material in the seed layer as a seed during a phase transition of the amorphous thin film, to form a channel layer on the insulation layer pattern and the seed layer. Therefore, the semiconductor device including the channel layer having the single-crystalline thin film may be manufactured.
