    摘要: A semiconductor device is provided. A semiconductor device includes: a first active pattern spaced apart from a substrate and extending in a first direction; a second active pattern spaced apart further from the substrate than the first active pattern and extending in the first direction; a gate structure on the substrate, the gate structure extending in a second direction crossing the first direction and penetrating the first active pattern and the second active pattern; a first source/drain region on at least one side surface of the gate structure and connected to the first active pattern; a second source/drain region on at least one side surface of the gate structure and connected to the second active pattern; and a buffer layer between the substrate and the first active pattern, the buffer layer containing germanium.

    摘要: An integrated circuit device includes a substrate having source and drain recesses therein that are lined with respective silicon-germanium liners and filled with doped semiconductor source and drain regions. A stacked plurality of semiconductor channel layers are provided, which are separated vertically from each other within the substrate by corresponding buried insulated gate electrode regions that extend laterally between the silicon-germanium liners. An insulated gate electrode is provided on an uppermost one of the plurality of semiconductor channel layers. The silicon-germanium liners may be doped with carbon.
