Method of fabricating a semiconductor device

Embodiments relate to a method of fabricating a semiconductor device. In embodiments, a gate pattern may be formed on a semiconductor substrate, and sidewalls having a lower height than a height of the gate pattern may be formed at both sides of the gate pattern using a photoresist pattern. A silicide layer may be formed on exposed upper surface and side surfaces of the gate pattern and a portion of the semiconductor substrate at both sides of the sidewalls. Therefore, the silicide layer formed on a gate may be enlarged, and may reduce gate resistance.
