Abstract:
Semiconductor devices, and methods for fabricating a semiconductor device, include forming a contact hole penetrating an interlayer insulating layer and exposing a conductor defining a bottom surface of the contact hole, forming a sacrificial layer filling the contact hole, forming a first trench overlapping a part of the contact hole by removing at least a part of the sacrificial layer, forming a spacer filling the first trench, forming a second trench by removing a remainder of the sacrificial layer, and forming a metal electrode filling the contact hole and the second trench using electroless plating.
Abstract:
Active patterns spaced apart from each other by an isolation layer are formed in a substrate. Gate structures extending in the isolation layer through the active patterns are formed. Each active pattern is divided into a central portion and a peripheral portion facing the central portion by the gate structures. A protrusion of at least one of active pattern is formed. The protrusion is exposed from a top surface of the isolation layer, and transformed into silicide such that a first silicide ohmic pad is formed at the central portion of the active pattern and a second silicide ohmic pad is formed at the peripheral portion of the active pattern. A conductive line structure electrically connected to the first silicide ohmic pad is formed. A conductive contact electrically connected to the second silicide ohmic pad is formed. A data storage unit electrically connected to the conductive contact is formed.
