Abstract

There is provided a semiconductor device. The semiconductor device may include multiple contacts plugs, an insulation layer pattern, a metal oxide layer pattern, a metal pattern and a metal line. The contact plugs contact a substrate. The insulation layer pattern is formed between the contact plugs and has a top surface lower than those of the contact plugs. The metal oxide layer pattern is formed on the insulation layer pattern, and has a dielectric constant higher than that of silicon oxide. The metal pattern is formed on the metal oxide layer pattern and contacts sidewalls of the contact plugs. The metal line contacts top surfaces of the contact plugs and the metal pattern and extends thereon.
