摘要: A 3D memory device includes a substrate, a plurality of conductive layers, a plurality of insulating layers, a memory layer and a channel layer. The insulating layers are alternately stacked with the conductive layers on the substrate to form a multi-layers stacking structure, wherein the multi-layers stacking structure has at least one trench penetrating through the insulating layers and the conductive layers. The memory layer covers on the multi-layers stacking structure and at least extends onto a sidewall of the trench. The cannel layer covers on the memory layer and includes an upper portion adjacent to an opening of the trench, a lower portion adjacent to a bottom of the trench and a string portion disposed on the sidewall, wherein the string portion connects the upper portion with the lower portion and has a doping concentration substantially lower than that of the upper portion and lower portion.
