Abstract

A semiconductor device includes a source region, a drain region, and a gate insulating film formed on a substrate, a gate electrode formed on the gate insulating film, a first insulating film pattern formed to extend from the source region to a part of a top surface of the gate electrode, and a spacer formed on a side surface of the gate electrode in a direction of the drain region.
