Abstract: A vertical non-volatile memory device includes a substrate including a cell region; a lower insulating layer on the substrate; a lower wiring pattern in the cell region having a predetermined pattern and connected to the substrate through the lower insulating layer; and a plurality of vertical channel layers extending in a vertical direction with respect to a top surface of the substrate in the cell region, spaced apart from one another in a horizontal direction with respect to the top surface of the substrate, and electrically connected to the lower wiring pattern. The memory device also includes a plurality of gate electrodes stacked alternately with interlayer insulating layers in the cell region in the vertical direction along a side wall of a vertical channel layer and formed to extend in a first direction along the horizontal direction.

Abstract: A semiconductor memory device includes a main cell array region, a first redundancy cell array region and a first dummy cell array region that are formed at one side of the main cell array region, and a second redundancy cell array region and a second dummy cell array region that are formed at the other side of the main cell array region. The first redundancy cell array region includes a first redundancy bitline, and the first dummy cell array region includes first dummy bitlines. The second redundancy cell array region includes a second redundancy bitline, and the second dummy cell array region includes second dummy bitlines. The first and second redundancy cell array regions are disposed closer to the main cell array region than the first and second dummy cell array regions.

Abstract: A method of fabricating a nonvolatile memory device includes preparing a semiconductor substrate including a cell array region. The method also includes forming a recessed region in the cell array region by etching the semiconductor substrate. The method includes etching at least a portion of the semiconductor substrate that partially includes the recessed region and forming first and second trenches that differ in depth, intersect the recessed region, and link with each other. The method includes forming a device isolation layer having rugged bottoms and defining an active region by filling an insulating material in the first and second trenches. The method includes forming a gate insulation layer on the semiconductor substrate of the active region including the recessed region and forming a gate structure on the gate insulation layer, to fill the recessed region, the gate structure including a floating gate, an intergate insulating pattern, and a control gate.
