Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a first semiconductor structure that includes a first substrate, circuit devices on the first substrate, a lower interconnection structure, and a lower bonding structure; and a second semiconductor structure disposed on and connected to the first semiconductor structure The second semiconductor structure includes a stack structure; channel structures that including a first portion that penetrate through the stack structure in the vertical direction and a second portion that extends upward from the first portion; a first material layer disposed on the stack structure and the channel structure and having first conductivity; and a second material layer disposed between the first material layer and the stack structure and having second conductivity., The first material layer overlaps second portions of the channel structures in the vertical direction, and the second material layer does not overlap the second portions of the channel structures in the vertical direction.

Abstract: A method of delegating user domain management authority is disclosed to provide flexible and continuous user domain management. According to this method, user domain management authority may be delegated from a first device in the user domain to a second device in the user domain. Delegation of user domain management authority may be performed through consultation with a delegation agent such that delegation may occur when the first device having user domain management authority is lost, unavailable, or otherwise inoperable by a user. Delegation of user domain management authority may include transferring user domain management information, such as user domain policy, user domain master key, and user domain key chain, from the first device to the second device. Once the second device receives user domain management information, user domain management authority of the first device may be discharged and notice may be sent to devices in the user domain.
