摘要:
In a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device, a first etching mask and a second etching mask are formed sequentially on a metal gate structure on a substrate and a first insulating interlayer covering a sidewall of the metal gate structure respectively. An opening is formed to expose a top surface of the substrate by removing a portion of the first insulating interlayer not overlapped with the first etching mask or the second etching mask. A metal silicide pattern is formed on the exposed top surface of the substrate. A plug on the metal silicide pattern is formed to fill a remaining portion of the opening. Further, a planarization layer may be used as the second etching mask.

In a method of fabricating a semiconductor device, a substrate including a circuit area and an overlay mark area is provided. Conductive gate patterns are formed on the substrate in the circuit area such that the overlay mark area is free of the gate patterns, and conductive contact patterns are formed on the substrate between the gate patterns in the circuit area. A mirror pattern is formed on the substrate in the overlay mark area, where the mirror pattern and the contact patterns comprising a same reflective material. Related semiconductor devices, overlay marks, and fabrication methods are also discussed.

Provided are a semiconductor device and a method for fabricating the same.

In a 6F2 cell structure of a memory device and a method of fabricating the same, the plurality of active regions may have a first area at both end portions and a second area at a central portion. A portion of a bit-line contact pad may be positioned on the second area and the other portion may be positioned on a third area of the substrate that may not overlap with the plurality of active regions. The bit line may be connected with the bit-line contact pad at the third area. The cell structure may be more easily formed despite a 6F2-structured unit cell. The plurality of active regions may have an elliptical shape including major and minor axes. The plurality of active regions may be positioned in a major axis direction to thereby form an active row, and may be positioned in a minor axis direction in such a structure that a center of the plurality of active regions is shifted from that of an adjacent active region in a neighboring active row.

A mask structure may include a first mask pattern and a second mask pattern formed on an object. When the object includes a first material, the first and the second mask patterns may include a second material and a third material, respectively. The second mask pattern may have at least two openings that expose portions of the object adjacent to sides of the first mask pattern. Because the mask structure has the first and the second mask patterns, desired structures, for example, recesses, trenches, contact holes or patterns may be more precisely formed on or through the object. For example, the first mask pattern may protect the object in an etching process for forming contact holes so that the contact holes may not be connected to each other, for example, when the contact holes have bar shapes or line shapes.

In one embodiment, first and second multi-layer pattern structures are formed over first and second regions of a substrate, respectively. The first and second multi-layer pattern structures include first and second support layer patterns, respectively. The first and second multi-layer pattern structures define first and second openings, respectively. The first and second openings partially expose a portion of the first region and a portion of the second region, respectively. First and second liner patterns are formed on an inner face of the first opening and an inner face of the second opening, respectively. A first etching process is performed on the first multi-layer pattern structure until the first support layer pattern is removed. A second etching process is performed to remove the second multi-layer pattern structure except for the second support layer pattern.
