SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICES - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18541625 titled 'SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICES

The semiconductor device described in the patent application includes an active pattern on a substrate, a gate structure, a conductive filling pattern, and a bit line structure on the conductive filling pattern. The gate structure extends through an upper portion of the active pattern, with an upper surface higher than that of the active pattern. The conductive filling pattern consists of a lower portion on the active pattern and an upper portion on top of it. The lower portion makes contact with an upper sidewall of the gate structure, while the upper portion has a greater width than the lower portion.

  • Gate structure extends through upper portion of active pattern
  • Upper surface of gate structure higher than active pattern
  • Conductive filling pattern has lower portion on active pattern and upper portion on top
  • Lower portion of filling pattern contacts upper sidewall of gate structure
  • Upper portion of filling pattern has greater width than lower portion

Original Abstract Submitted

A semiconductor device includes an active pattern on a substrate, a gate structure, a conductive filling pattern and a bit line structure on the conductive filling pattern. The gate structure extends through an upper portion of the active pattern, and has an upper surface higher than an upper surface of the active pattern. The conductive filling pattern includes a lower portion on the active pattern and an upper portion thereon. The lower portion contacts an upper sidewall of the gate structure, and the upper portion has a width greater than a width of the lower portion.
