摘要: Embodiments of methods for forming channel holes in 3D memory devices using a nonconformal sacrificial layer are disclosed. In an example, a dielectric stack including interleaved first dielectric layers and second dielectric layers is formed on a substrate. An opening extending vertically through the dielectric stack is formed. A nonconformal sacrificial layer is formed along a sidewall of the opening, such that a variation of a diameter of the opening decreases. The nonconformal sacrificial layer and part of the dielectric stack abutting the nonconformal sacrificial layer are removed. A channel structure is formed in the opening after removing the nonconformal sacrificial layer and part of the dielectric stack.
