摘要： A semiconductor device includes a substrate including a fin-type active region, the fin-type active region extending in a first direction; a plurality of channel layers on the fin-type active region, the plurality of channel layers including an uppermost channel layer, a lowermost channel layer, and an intermediate channel layer isolated from direct contact with each other in a direction perpendicular to an upper surface of the substrate; a gate electrode surrounding the plurality of channel layers and extending in a second direction intersecting the first direction; a gate insulating film between the plurality of channel layers and the gate electrode; and source/drain regions electrically connected to the plurality of channel layers. In a cross section taken in the second direction, the uppermost channel layer has a width greater than a width of the intermediate channel layer.

摘要： An integrated circuit device includes a plurality of gate structures each including a gate line extending on a fin-type active region and insulation spacers on sidewalls of the gate line; a source/drain contact between first and second gate structures, and having opposing sides that are asymmetric in the first horizontal direction; and an insulation liner on sidewalls of the source/drain contact. The source/drain contact includes a lower contact portion and an upper contact portion having a horizontal extension that extends on an upper corner of the first gate structure, the insulation liner includes a first local region between the upper corner and the horizontal extension and a second local region that is farther from the substrate than the first local region, and a thickness of the first local region is greater than that of the second local region.
