However, a semiconductor pattern may have a characteristic distribution such as a height distribution, and especially in a COP structure in which a circuit pattern may be formed under a memory cell array, a SEG process may be performed on the circuit pattern using a polysilicon layer as a seed, thereby uniformly forming the semiconductor pattern may not be easy

Abstract

In a method of manufacturing a vertical memory device, a first sacrificial layer including a nitride is formed on a substrate. A mold including an insulation layer and a second sacrificial layer alternately and repeatedly stacked is formed on the first sacrificial layer. The insulation layer and the second sacrificial layer include a first oxide and a second oxide, respectively. A channel is formed by passing through the mold and the first sacrificial layer. An opening is formed by passing through the mold and the first sacrificial layer to expose an upper surface of the substrate. The first sacrificial layer is removed through the opening to form a first gap. A channel connecting pattern is formed to fill the first gap. The second sacrificial layer is replaced with a gate electrode.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims priority to Korean Patent Application No. 10-2018-0148338 filed with the Korean Intellectual Property Office (KIPO) on November 27, 2018, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety. technical field [0003] The inventive concept relates to a method of manufacturing a vertical memory device. Background technique [0004] To connect a channel to a substrate in a VNAND flash memory device, a channel hole may be formed through a mold including insulating layers and sacrificial layers alternately stacked on the substrate to expose the upper surface of the substrate. A selective epitaxial growth (SEG) process may be performed using the exposed upper surface of the substrate as a seed to form a semiconductor pattern, and a channel may be formed on the semiconductor pattern. However, a semiconductor pattern may have a characteristic distribution such as a height distri...
