Disclosed is an operation method of a memory device that includes a memory block including a plurality of cell transistors stacked in a direction perpendicular to a substrate. The plurality of cell transistors may include a ground selection transistor and an erase control transistor. The erase control transistor may be between the substrate and the ground selection transistor. The operation method may include performing a first erase operation on the ground selection transistor, performing a first program operation on the erase control transistor after the first erase operation, performing a second program operation on the ground selection transistor after the first program operation, and performing a second erase operation on the erase control transistor after the second program operation.

Operation method of memory device, and operation method of memory controller controlling memory device

An operating method of a memory system includes storing normal data to a first storage area of a non-volatile memory in a first program mode among multiple program modes defined according to a number of bits stored in each memory cell; storing dummy data in the first storage area in at least one of the multiple program modes including the first program mode; and copying the normal data from the first storage area to a second storage area of the non-volatile memory based on dummy data stored in the first program mode.

An operation method of a nonvolatile memory device includes performing a 1-stage program step and a 1-stage verify step on a first word line, storing a first time stamp, performing the 1-stage program step and the 1-stage verify step on a second word line, storing a second time stamp, calculating a delay time based on the first time stamp and the second time stamp, determining whether the delay time is greater than a threshold value, adjusting at least one 2-stage verify voltage associated with the first word line from a first voltage level to a second voltage level based on the delay time, and performing a 2-stage program step and a 2-stage verify step on the first word line. A level of the at least one 1-stage verify voltage is lower than the second voltage level, and the second voltage level is lower than the first voltage level.
