Abstract

Example embodiments relate to a semiconductor memory device and a method of forming the semiconductor memory device. The semiconductor memory device may include a first interlayer insulating layer on a semiconductor substrate. A bit line may be arranged in a first direction on the first interlayer insulating layer. A bit line contact pad may be disposed in the first interlayer insulating layer and electrically connected to the bit line. A storage contact pad may be disposed in the first interlayer insulating layer. A top surface of the bit line contact pad may be lower than a top surface of the storage contact pad.
