Abstract: A semiconductor memory device comprises a semiconductor substrate comprising a first region, a second region, and a third region provided therebetween. The first region comprises: first conductive layers; a first semiconductor layer facing the first conductive layers; and a second semiconductor layer connected to the first semiconductor layer. The second region comprises: a third semiconductor layer and fourth semiconductor layer; and a second conductive layer electrically connected to the third semiconductor layer, the fourth semiconductor layer, and the semiconductor substrate. The third region comprises a fifth semiconductor layer and sixth semiconductor layer that are formed continuously with the second semiconductor layer and the third semiconductor layer or fourth semiconductor layer, and extend in a second direction. The third region comprises first and second portions aligned alternately in the second direction.
