Abstract:
A method of fabricating a semiconductor may include forming on a substrate a mold structure including a mold layer, a buffer layer, and a support layer, performing on the mold structure an anisotropic etching process to form a plurality of through holes in the mold structure, and forming a plurality of bottom electrodes in the through holes. The buffer layer has a nitrogen content amount that increases as approaching the support layer from the mold layer. The buffer layer has an oxygen content amount that increases as approaching the mold layer from the support layer.
Abstract:
A semiconductor device includes a pair of line patterns disposed on a substrate. A contact plug is disposed between the pair of line patterns and an air gap is disposed between the contact plug and the line patterns. A landing pad extends from a top end of the contact plug to cover a first part of the air gap and an insulating layer is disposed on a second part of the air gap, which is not covered by the landing pad.
