  • Patent number: 11696447
    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a substrate having cell array and extension regions, a gate electrode structure having gate electrodes stacked in a first direction, a channel through the gate electrode structure on the cell array region, a first division pattern extending in the second direction on the cell array and extension regions, the first division pattern being at opposite sides of the gate electrode structure in a third direction, an insulation pattern structure partially through the gate electrode structure on the extension region, a through via through the insulation pattern structure, and a support layer on the gate electrode structure and extending on the cell array and extension regions, the support layer contacting an upper sidewall of the first division pattern, and the support layer not contacting an upper surface of a portion of the first division pattern on the extension region adjacent to the insulation pattern structure.

  • Publication number: 20210305150
    Abstract: A memory device including a substrate; a lower conductive layer on the substrate; a stacked structure including gate layers and interlayer insulating layers alternately stacked on the lower conductive layer; a channel structure in a channel hole that penetrates the stacked structure in a vertical direction; and a common source line structure in a common source line trench that penetrates the lower conductive layer and the stacked structure in the vertical direction. The common source line structure includes a side insulating layer on a side surface of the common source line trench, a central insulating layer at a central portion of the common source line trench, an intermediate conductive layer between the side insulating layer and the central insulating layer, and an upper conductive layer at an upper portion of the common source line trench.
