Abstract

The invention relates to a semiconductor device and a method of fabricating the same, wherein a storage node contact hole is made large to solve any problem caused during etching a storage node contact hole with a small CD, a landing plug is formed to lower plug resistance, and the SAC process is eliminated at the time of the bit line formation. A method of fabricating a semiconductor device according to the invention comprises: forming a device isolation film for defining a multiplicity of active regions in a semiconductor substrate; forming a multiplicity of buried word lines in the semiconductor substrate; forming a storage node contact hole for exposing a storage node contact region of two adjoining active regions; filling the storage node contact hole with a storage node contact plug material; forming a bit-line groove for exposing a bit-line contact region of the active region and splitting the storage node contact plug material into two; and burying the bit line into the bit-line groove.
