Abstract:
A semiconductor device can include a substrate including a plurality of active regions having a long axis in a first direction and a short axis in a second direction, the plurality of active regions being repeatedly and separately positioned along the first and second directions, an isolation film defining the plurality of active regions, a plurality of word lines extending across the plurality of active regions and the isolation film, and a positive fixed charge containing layer covering at least a portion of the plurality of word lines, respectively.
Abstract:
A semiconductor device may include a semiconductor layer including at least one unit device, a first interconnection on the semiconductor layer and electrically connected to the at least one unit device, a diffusion barrier layer on the first interconnection, an intermetallic dielectric layer on the diffusion barrier layer, a plug in a first region of the intermetallic dielectric layer and passing through the diffusion barrier layer so that a bottom surface thereof contacts the first interconnection, and a first dummy plug in a second region of the intermetallic dielectric layer, passing through the diffusion barrier layer, and disposed apart from the first interconnection so that a bottom surface of the first dummy plug does not contact the first interconnection.

Abstract:
A semiconductor device includes a substrate partitioned into a cell region, a peripheral circuit region, and an interface region between the cell region and the peripheral circuit region. A guard ring is provided in the interface region of the substrate and surrounds the cell region. A first gate structure is in the cell region, and a second gate structure is in the peripheral circuit region.
Abstract:
A semiconductor device can include an isolation region that defines a plurality of active regions. The plurality of active regions can include an upper surface having a short axis in a first direction and a long axis in a second direction. The plurality of active regions can be repeatedly disposed along the first direction and along the second direction, and can be spaced apart from each other. The isolation region can include a first insulating layer being in contact with side walls of a short axis pair of active regions which can be the closest active regions in the first direction among the plurality of active regions, and continuously extending along a first shortest distance between the short axis pair of active regions.
