    摘要: A semiconductor memory device may have a substrate including an active region in a memory cell region and a logic active region in a peripheral region, an element isolation structure between the active region and the logic active region, an insulating layer pattern covering the active region, and a support insulating layer. The insulating layer pattern may include an extension portion that extends along the element isolation structure, may be spaced apart from the element isolation structure, and may overhang over the element isolation structure. The support insulating layer may fill a recess space defined between the extension portion and the element isolation structure.

    摘要: A semiconductor device may include a semiconductor substrate, a crack-blocking layer and a crack-blocking portion. The semiconductor substrate may include a plurality of chip regions and a scribe lane region configured to surround each of the plurality of the chip regions. A trench may be defined by one or more inner surfaces of the semiconductor device to be formed in the scribe lane region. The crack-blocking layer may be on an inner surface of the trench. The crack-blocking layer may be configured to block a spreading of a crack, which is generated in the scribe lane region during a cutting of the semiconductor substrate along the scribe lane region, from spreading into any of the chip regions. The crack-blocking portion may at least partially fill the trench and may be configured to block the spreading of the crack from the scribe lane region into any of the chip regions.
