Abstract:
A semiconductor device including a plurality of active patterns, a plurality of first isolation layer patterns and a plurality of second isolation layer patterns may be provided. In particular, the active patterns may be arranged both in a first direction and in a second direction, and may protrude from a substrate and have a length in the first direction. The first isolation layer patterns may fill a first space, the first space provided between the active patterns and arranged in the first direction, and support two opposing sidewalls of neighboring active patterns. The second isolation layer patterns may fill a second space between the active patterns and the first isolation layer patterns. Accordingly, the active patterns of the semiconductor device may not collapse or incline because the first isolation layer patterns support the active patterns.
