Abstract:
A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device includes forming a conductive pattern on a substrate, forming a filling insulation layer covering the conductive pattern, forming a contact hole in the filling insulation layer and adjacent to the conductive pattern, forming an opening in the conductive pattern by removing a portion of the conductive pattern adjacent to the contact hole such that the opening is connected to the contact hole, and forming a contact plug filling the contact hole and the opening. A width of the opening is greater than a width of the contact hole.

Claim (Index 1):
A semiconductor device comprising:\n a stack structure on a substrate, the stack structure including a plurality of conductive patterns stacked on the substrate; and a plurality of contact plugs connected to the plurality of conductive patterns respectively, wherein at least one of the plurality of contact plugs includes a contact plate in a corresponding one of the plurality of conductive patterns and a contact body on the contact plate, and wherein the contact plate has a circular shape in a plan view.
