A method of fabricating a semiconductor device includes forming a channel layer on a substrate, forming a sacrificial layer on the channel layer, forming a hardmask pattern on the sacrificial layer, and performing a patterning process using the hardmask pattern as an etch mask to form a channel portion with an exposed top surface. The channel and sacrificial layers may be formed of silicon germanium, and the sacrificial layer may have a germanium content higher than that of the channel layer. |
