    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a lower structure; a first upper structure including lower gate layers on the lower structure; a second upper structure including upper gate layers on the first upper structure; separation structures penetrating the first and second upper structures on the lower structure; a memory vertical structure penetrating the lower and upper gate layers between the separation structures; and a first contact plug penetrating the first and second upper structures and spaced apart from the lower and upper gate layers. Each of the first contact plug and the memory vertical structure includes a lateral surface having a bent portion. The bent portion of the lateral surface is disposed between a first height level on which an uppermost gate layer of the lower gate layers is disposed and a second height level on which a lowermost gate layer of the upper gate layers is disposed.

    Abstract: Vertical memory devices and method of manufacturing the same are disclosed. The vertical memory device includes a substrate having a cell block area, a block separation area and a boundary area, a plurality of stack structures arranged in the cell block area and the boundary area such that insulation interlayer patterns are stacked on the substrate alternately with the electrode patterns. The stack structures are spaced apart by the block separation area in the third direction. A plurality of channel structures extend through the stack structures to the substrate in the cell block area in the first direction and are connected to the substrate. A plurality of dummy channel structures extend through upper portions of each of the stack structures in the boundary area and are connected to a dummy bottom electrode pattern spaced apart from the substrate. The bridge defect is thus substantially prevented near the substrate.
