Methods of forming semiconductor devices having multiple channel MOS transistors and related intermediate structures

摘要

In a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device, a preliminary active pattern including gate layers and channel layers is formed on a substrate. The gate layers and the channel layers are alternatively stacked. A hard mask is formed on the preliminary active pattern. The preliminary active pattern is partially etched using the hard mask as an etching mask to expose a surface of the substrate. The etched preliminary active pattern is trimmed to form an active channel pattern having a width less than a lower width of the hard mask. Source/drain layers are formed on exposed side faces of the active channel pattern and the surface. The gate layers are selectively etched to form tunnels. A gate encloses the active channel pattern and filling the tunnels. Related intermediate structures are also disclosed.
