Abstract

According to example embodiments of inventive concepts, a method of fabricating a semiconductor device includes forming a sacrificial pattern having SiGe on a crystalline silicon substrate. A body having crystalline silicon is formed on the sacrificial pattern. At least one active element is formed on the body. An insulating layer is formed to cover the sacrificial pattern, the body, and the active element. A contact hole is formed to expose the sacrificial pattern through the insulating layer. A void space is formed by removing the sacrificial pattern. An amorphous silicon layer is formed in the contact hole and the void space. The amorphous silicon layer is transformed into a metal silicide layer.
