Abstract
Semiconductor devices, having dual silicides, include a first fin, having N-type impurities, and a second fin, having P-type impurities, on a substrate. A first gate electrode and a first source/drain area are on the first fin. A second gate electrode and a second source/drain area are on the second fin. An etch stop layer is on the first source/drain area and the second source/drain area. An insulating layer is on the etch stop layer. A first plug connected to the first source/drain area and a second plug connected to the second source/drain area are formed through the insulating layer and the etch stop layer. A first metal silicide layer is in the first source/drain area. A second metal silicide layer having a material different from the first metal silicide layer and having a thickness smaller than the first metal silicide layer is in the second source/drain area.
