Patent number: 10685977Abstract: A semiconductor memory device includes a stack structure including gate electrodes vertically stacked on a substrate and a vertical channel part penetrating the gate electrodes, a bit line connected to the vertical channel part, and a plurality of conductive lines connected to the gate electrodes on the stack structure. The conductive lines form a plurality of stacked layers and include first conductive lines and second conductive lines. The number of the first conductive lines disposed at a first level from the substrate is different from the number of the second conductive lines disposed at a second level from the substrate. The first level is different from the second level.Type: GrantFiled: December 24, 2018Date of Patent: June 16, 2020Assignee: SAMSUNG ELECTRONICS CO., .LTD.Inventors: Jongwon Kim, Hyeong Park, Hyunmin Lee, Hojong Kang, Joowon Park, Seungmin Song
