    Abstract: There is provided a semiconductor device to enhance operating characteristics by reducing parasitic capacitance between a gate electrode and other nodes. The semiconductor device includes: a substrate including an active region, and a field region directly adjacent to the active region; a first fin-type pattern protruding from the substrate in the active region; a first gate electrode disposed on the substrate, intersecting with the first fin-type pattern and including a first portion and a second portion, the first portion intersecting with the first fin-type pattern; a second gate electrode disposed on the substrate, intersecting with the first fin-type pattern and including a third portion and a fourth portion, the fourth portion facing the second portion, and the third portion intersecting with the first fin-type pattern and facing the first portion; a first interlayer insulating structure disposed between the first portion and the third portion, being on the substrate, and having a first dielectric constant; and a second interlayer insulating structure disposed between the second portion and the fourth portion, being on the substrate, and having a second dielectric constant which is different from the first dielectric constant.

    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a substrate, a gate electrode disposed on an upper surface of the substrate, a source region disposed on a first side of the gate electrode, a drain region disposed on a second side of the gate electrode opposite to the first side of the gate electrode in a horizontal direction, and an insulating structure at least partially buried inside the substrate on the substrate. The insulating structure includes a first portion disposed between the substrate and the gate electrode, and a second portion in contact with the drain region. An uppermost surface of the second portion of the insulating structure is lower than an uppermost surface of the first portion of the insulating structure. At least a part of the gate electrode is disposed on the uppermost surface of the second portion of the insulating structure.

    Abstract: A soft error rate (SER) associated with a design of a semiconductor circuit may be predicted based on implementing a simulation associated with the design. The simulation may include generating a simulation environment based on information indicating the design, performing a particle strike simulation based on the simulation environment to generate charge deposition information, and calculating a collected charge quantity from the charge deposition information. A determination may be made whether the SER predicted based on the collected charge quantity at least meets a threshold. The design may be modified, and the simulation repeated, if the predicted SER value meets a threshold value. A semiconductor circuit may be manufactured based on the design if the predicted SER value is less than the threshold value.
