9. A method for fabricating a semiconductor device, comprising:
-
forming a plurality of preliminary active pillars arrayed with a first space and a second space by etching a substrate, the second space being narrower than the first space; forming bulb-type trenches by etching the substrate beneath the first space; forming buried bit lines, each of the buried bit lines being formed on each sidewall of a respective one of the bulb-type trenches; forming a plurality of active pillars by etching the preliminary active pillars; and forming vertical gates, each of the vertical gate surrounding a sidewall of a respective one of the active pillars. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
