Original Abstract Submitted

A semiconductor device includes first channel patterns adjacent to each other, a first gate electrode that overlaps with one of the first channel patterns, first source/drain patterns between the first channel patterns, and a first active contact in contact with a side surface of each of the first source/drain patterns. A crystal plane of the side surface of each of the first source/drain patterns is one of {100} planes.
