SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE AND MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREOF
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device, the method comprising:
- forming a sacrificial group having a buried pattern embedded therein;
forming a stack structure over the sacrificial group, wherein the stack structure includes first material layers and second material layers, which are alternately stacked, and is divided into a first region overlapping with the buried pattern and a second region extending from the first region;
forming a slit exposing a sidewall of the stack structure therethrough by etching the first region of the stack structure through an etching process that is stopped when the buried pattern is exposed; and
separating the buried pattern into gate patterns by etching a portion of the buried pattern exposed through the slit.

Abstract
A semiconductor device includes: a stack structure including horizontal conductive patterns and interlayer insulating layers, which are alternately stacked; gate patterns overlapping with both ends of the stack structure under the stack structure, the gate patterns being spaced apart from each other; and a channel pattern including vertical parts penetrating the stack structure, and a connection part disposed under the stack structure, the connection part connecting the vertical parts.

14. A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device, the method comprising:
-
forming a well structure including a first conductivity type dopant; forming a sacrificial group over the well structure, wherein the sacrificial group has a conductive pattern embedded therein; forming a stack structure over the sacrificial group, wherein the stack structure includes a first region overlapping with the conductive pattern and a second region extending from the first region; forming holes that penetrate the second region of the stack structure; opening a horizontal space by removing the sacrificial group through the holes; forming a multi-layered memory layer extending to the inside of the holes from the inside of the horizontal space along a surface of the horizontal space and surfaces of the holes; forming a channel layer on a surface of the multi-layered memory layer; forming a gap-fill insulating layer that is filled in the horizontal space and the holes on the channel layer; exposing the well structure by etching the first region of the stack structure, the pattern, the multi-layered memory layer, the gap-fill insulating layer, and the channel layer; forming a well contact line that connects the well structure and the channel layer; and forming a source contact line that is connected to the channel layer on the top of the well contact line and includes a second conductivity type dopant. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18)
