Abstract

A semiconductor device includes a substrate including an active region, a gate structure disposed in a gate trench in the substrate, a bit line disposed on the substrate and electrically connected to the active region on one side of the gate structure, and a capacitor disposed on the bit line and electrically connected to the active region on another side of the gate structure. The gate structure includes a gate dielectric layer disposed on bottom and inner side surfaces of the gate trench, a conductive layer disposed on the gate dielectric layer in a lower portion of the gate trench, sidewall insulating layers disposed on the gate dielectric layer, on an upper surface of the conductive layer, a graphene conductive layer disposed on the conductive layer, and a buried insulating layer disposed between the sidewall insulating layers on the graphene conductive layer.
