Abstract

A semiconductor device includes a substrate provided with an active pattern; a gate structure provided on the active pattern to cross the active pattern; and source/drain regions provided at both sides of the gate structure. The active pattern includes a first region below the gate structure and second regions at both sides of the gate structure. A top surface of each of the second regions is lower than that of the first region. The source/drain regions are provided on the second regions, respectively, and each of the source/drain regions covers partially both sidewalls of each of the second regions.
