Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a gate stack with alternating conductive patterns and insulating patterns. The device also includes a first memory channel structure including a first channel layer enclosed by the gate stack and a first memory layer enclosing the first channel layer. The device also includes a source structure electrically connected to the first channel layer. The source structure includes several source layers stacked atop one another. The first channel layer is in physical contact with the second source layer but apart from the other source layers. The first source layer contains impurities of a first conductivity type. The second source layer is formed of an impurity-free material. The third source layer contains impurities of a second conductivity type different from the first conductivity type.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a diffuser and a method of manufacturing the same, and more particularly, to a diffuser and a method of manufacturing the same, in which light emitted through the diffuser forms an asymmetric light output pattern. A diffuser according to an exemplary embodiment is a diffuser that forms an asymmetric light output pattern by diffusing laser beams received from a laser source, the diffuser including: a base; and a micro lens array disposed on the base, in which the micro lens array has a plurality of micro lenses each comprising a lower surface and a curved surface disposed on the lower surface, and the lower surface has horizontal and vertical lengths different from each other.
