Abstract

A semiconductor device includes a substrate having an active region, a first insulating layer on the substrate, a second insulating layer on the first insulating layer, an etch stop layer between the first insulating layer and the second insulating layer, a via contact in the first insulating layer and electrically connected to the active region, an interconnection electrode in the second insulating layer and electrically connected to the via contact, a conductive barrier layer on a side surface and a lower surface of the interconnection electrode and having an extension portion extending to a partial region of a side surface of the via contact, and a side insulating layer on a side region of the via contact below the extension portion of the conductive barrier layer, the side insulating layer including the same material as a material of the etch stop layer.
