Abstract: A semiconductor device and a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device are provided. The semiconductor device includes a semiconductor substrate, a trench, and a word line structure in the trench. The semiconductor substrate has a first active region and an isolation layer. The first active region includes a first sub-active region, a second sub-active region, and a first separation channel separating the first sub-active region from the second sub-active region. The word line structure is adjacent to the first active region and includes a word line insulating layer covering inner side surfaces of the trench, a word line electrode on the word line insulating layer, and a word line capping structure on the word line electrode. A depth of the first separation channel is substantially identical to a thickness of the isolation layer.
