Abstract

A semiconductor memory device includes a device isolation pattern on a substrate to define an active region, a word line in the substrate, to intersect the active region, a first dopant region in the active region as at a first side of the word line, a second dopant region in the active region at a second side of the word line, a bit line connected to the first dopant region and intersecting the word line, a bit line contact connecting the bit line to the first dopant region, a landing pad on the second dopant region, and a storage node contact connecting the landing pad to the second dopant region, the storage node contact including a first portion in contact with the second dopant region, the first portion including a single-crystal silicon, and a second portion on the first portion and including a poly-silicon.
