Abstract

A semiconductor device has plural columnar gate electrodes for plural MOSFETs formed in a row separately on a semiconductor substrate, and a semiconductor region which is formed in a part between the neighboring two columnar gate electrodes of the plural columnar gate electrodes to form a channel of the MOSFETs.

Claims (17)

1. A semiconductor device, comprising:

plural columnar gate electrodes for plural MOSFETs formed in a row separately on a semiconductor substrate;

a semiconductor region which is formed in a part between the neighboring two columnar gate electrodes of the plural columnar gate electrodes to form a channel of the MOSFETs;

a source region disposed along one side of the row of the plural columnar gate electrodes; and
