Original Abstract Submitted
A semiconductor device includes a substrate including an active pattern, first and second source/drain patterns overlapping with the active pattern, a separation insulating layer between the first and second source/drain patterns, and first and second gate electrodes spaced apart from each other with the separation insulating layer interposed therebetween. A level of a top surface of the separation insulating layer is higher than a level of a top surface of the first gate electrode and a level of a top surface of the second gate electrode.
