Abstract: Provided is an operating method of a nonvolatile memory device including a plurality of cell strings, each cell string of the plurality of cell strings including a plurality of memory cells, connected between a bit line and a common source line, and vertical holes penetrating a plurality of word lines stacked in a direction perpendicular to a substrate, the operating method including applying a word line voltage to the plurality of word lines, classifying the plurality of word lines into a plurality of regions, each region of the plurality of regions including at least one of the word lines, and recovering voltages of the plurality of word lines by recovering voltages of word lines arranged in a central region among the plurality of regions before recovering voltages of word lines in other regions of the plurality of regions.

Abstract: The inventive concepts provide semiconductor devices and methods of fabricating the same. According to the method, sub-stack structures having a predetermined height and active holes are repeatedly stacked. Thus, cell dispersion may be improved, and various errors such as a not-open error caused in an etching process may be prevented. A grain size of an active pillar used as channels may be increased or maximized using a metal induced lateral crystallization method, so that a cell current may be improved. A formation position of a metal silicide layer including a crystallization inducing metal may be controlled such that a concentration grade of the crystallization inducing metal may be controlled depending on a position within the active pillar.
