    摘要: Aspects of the disclosure provide methods of manufacturing a semiconductor device. In a method, a stack of alternating gate layers and insulating layers is formed over a first region and a second region of a substrate of the semiconductor device. The stack of alternating gate layers and insulating layers is of a stair-step form over the second region of the substrate. A channel structure is formed over the first region and dummy channel structures are formed over the second region. The dummy channel structures includes a first dummy channel structure disposed through a first stair region of the stair-step form, a second dummy channel structure disposed through a second stair region of the stair-step form adjacent to the first stair region, and a third dummy channel structure disposed at a boundary between the first stair region and the second stair region.

    摘要: A semiconductor device includes a first stack of layers stacked on a substrate. The first stack of layers includes a source connection layer that is formed by replacing source sacrificial layers. The semiconductor device includes a channel structure that extends in the first stack of layers. The channel structure includes a channel layer that is in contact with the source connection layer in the first stack of layers. Further, the semiconductor device includes a shield structure formed in the first stack of layers. The shied structure encloses a stack of layers without the source connection layer.

    摘要: Aspects of the disclosure provide a semiconductor device. The semiconductor device includes a substrate, a plurality of gate layers, and a plurality of insulating layers. The plurality of gate layers and the plurality of insulating layers are stacked alternately over a first region of the substrate and are stacked of a stair-step form over a second region of the substrate. The semiconductor device also includes a channel structure that is disposed over the first region and through the plurality of gate layers and the plurality of insulating layers. The channel structure and the plurality of gate layers form a stack of transistors in a series configuration with the plurality of gate layers being a plurality of gates for the stack of transistors. The semiconductor device also includes a first dummy channel structure that is disposed through a first stair region of the stair-step form, a second dummy channel structure that is disposed through a second stair region of the stair-step form adjacent to the first stair region, and a third dummy channel structure that is disposed at a boundary between the first stair region and the second stair region.
