Abstract: A method of manufacturing a semiconductor memory apparatus, in which a plurality of memory dies are stacked, includes forming first memory dies on a wafer. An under-fill material is deposited on a wafer, on which the first memory dies are formed, to form a first part of an under-fill layer. A first portion of the under-fill layer remaining on top surfaces of the first memory dies is removed by performing a half sawing process, and parts of edge portions of the first memory dies are removed during the removal of the first portion of the under-fill layer to form first cavities. Second memory dies are formed on the first memory dies. The under-fill material is deposited on the wafer including the second memory dies formed thereon to form a second part of the under-fill layer on a remaining part of the under-fill layer.
