Abstract

A semiconductor device includes channel layers on a substrate, the channel layers being spaced apart from each other, and having first side surfaces and second side surfaces opposing each other in a first direction, a gate electrode surrounding the channel layers and having a first end portion and a second end portion, opposing each other in the first direction, and a source/drain layer on a first side of the gate electrode and in contact with the channel layers, a portion of the source/drain layer protruding further than the first end portion of the gate electrode in the first direction, wherein a first distance from the first end portion of the gate electrode to the first side surfaces of the channel layers is shorter than a second distance from the second end portion of the gate electrode to the second side surfaces of the channel layers.
