Semiconductor device having overlay measurement mark and method of fabricating the same

Abstract

There are provided a semiconductor device having an overlay measurement mark, and a method of fabricating the same. The semiconductor device includes a scribe line region disposed on a semiconductor substrate. A first main scale layer having a first group of line and space patterns and a second group of line and space patterns is disposed on the scribe line region. Line-shaped second main scale patterns are disposed on space regions of the first group of the line and space patterns. Line-shaped vernier scale patterns are disposed on space regions of the second group of the line and space patterns. In the method, a first main scale layer having a first group of line and space patterns and a second group of line and space patterns is formed on a semiconductor substrate. Line-shaped second main scale patterns are formed on space regions of the first group of the line and space patterns. Line-shaped vernier scale patterns are formed on space regions of the second group of the line and space patterns.
