A floating body memory includes a semiconductor substrate having a cell
region and a peripheral circuit region. A floating body cell is located
in the cell region and a first floating body is located in the peripheral
circuit region of the semiconductor substrate. A peripheral gate pattern
is positioned on the first floating body. First source and drain regions
are positioned at both sides of the peripheral gate pattern. First
leakage shielding patterns are positioned between the first floating body
and the first source and drain regions, the first source and drain
regions contacting the first floating body. The first leakage shielding
patterns may be positioned outside outer edges of the peripheral gate
pattern.
