    Abstract: A three-dimensional memory device includes a base dielectric layer disposed on a substrate, a stack structure that includes word lines and interlayer dielectric layers that are alternately stacked on the base dielectric layer, a bit line that penetrates the stack structure and extends in a vertical direction perpendicular to a top surface of the substrate, and buried storage patterns interposed between the bit line and the word lines and spaced apart from each other in the vertical direction. Each of the buried storage patterns has a width in a horizontal direction parallel to the top surface of the substrate. The widths of the buried storage patterns increase with increasing vertical distance from the substrate.
