Abstract
A semiconductor device and a method of manufacturing the same are provided. The semiconductor device includes a substrate including a trench. The semiconductor device further includes a gate electrode disposed in the trench, and a gate insulating film disposed between the substrate and the gate electrode. The gate electrode includes a gate conductor and a metal element, and an effective work function of the gate electrode is less than an effective work function of the gate conductor.
