Abstract
An integrated circuit device includes: a fin-type active region on a substrate and including a fin top surface at a first level; a gate line on the fin-type active region; and an insulating structure on a sidewall of the fin-type active region. The insulating structure includes: a first insulating liner in contact with a sidewall of the fin-type active region; a second insulating liner on the first insulating liner and including an uppermost portion at a second level c than the first level; a lower buried insulating layer facing the sidewall of the fin-type active region and including a first top surface facing the gate line at a third level lower than the second level; and an upper buried insulating layer between the lower buried insulating layer and the gate line and including a second top surface at a fourth level equal to or higher than the second level.
