Abstract

Semiconductor devices and methods of fabricating the same are provided. The methods may include forming an isolation region defining a fin active region, forming a sacrificial field gate pattern on the isolation region and forming a sacrificial fin gate pattern on the fin active region. The method may also include forming a field gate cut zone comprising a first recess exposing a surface of the isolation region and a fin active cut zone comprising a second recess exposing a surface of the fin active region, forming a fin active recess in the second recess of the fin active cut zone and forming a field gate core and a fin active core by forming an insulation material in the first recess of the field gate cut zone and the fin active recess, respectively.
