Abstract
An integrated circuit device includes: a fin-type active region extending in a first horizontal direction on a substrate, a channel region on the fin-type active region, a gate line surrounding the channel region on the fin-type active region and extending in a second horizontal direction crossing the first horizontal direction, an insulating spacer covering a sidewall of the gate line, a source/drain region connected to the channel region on the fin-type active region and including a first portion facing the sidewall of the gate line with the insulating spacer therebetween, an air gap between the insulating spacer and the first portion of the source/drain region, and an insulating liner including a portion in contact with the source/drain region and a portion defining a size of the air gap.
