A memory device includes a substrate; a stacked structure including a plurality of gate layers and a plurality of interlayer insulating layers that are alternately stacked on the substrate in a vertical direction, the stacked structure including a row of cutouts, each of the cutouts extending in a first horizontal direction and being configured to cut the plurality of gate layers, the cutouts being apart from each other and arranged in a cell region of the stacked structure in the first horizontal direction; and a row of channel structures, the channel structures being arranged in the cell region in the first horizontal direction, each of the channel structures extending in the vertical direction to penetrate the plurality of gate layers.

Memory device

A semiconductor device includes a substrate having cell array and extension regions, a gate electrode structure having gate electrodes stacked in a first direction, a channel through the gate electrode structure on the cell array region, a first division pattern extending in the second direction on the cell array and extension regions, the first division pattern being at opposite sides of the gate electrode structure in a third direction, an insulation pattern structure partially through the gate electrode structure on the extension region, a through via through the insulation pattern structure, and a support layer on the gate electrode structure and extending on the cell array and extension regions, the support layer contacting an upper sidewall of the first division pattern, and the support layer not contacting an upper surface of a portion of the first division pattern on the extension region adjacent to the insulation pattern structure.
