A vertical semiconductor device includes: a lower structure; a multi-layer stack structure including a source layer formed over the lower structure and gate electrodes formed over the source layer; a vertical structure penetrating the multi-layer stack structure and including a channel layer insulated from the source layer; a vertical source line spaced apart from the vertical structure to penetrate the multi-layer stack structure and contacting the source layer; and a horizontal source channel contact suitable for coupling the source layer and the channel layer and including a first conductive layer and a second conductive layer that include different dopants.

Vertical semiconductor device and method for fabricating the vertical semiconductor device

A semiconductor device includes a first stacked structure including word lines and dielectric layers alternately stacked over a substrate. The semiconductor device also includes a plurality of first vertical channel structures formed through the first stacked structure and a second stacked structure including gate electrodes and dielectric layers alternately stacked over the first stacked structure. The semiconductor device further includes a plurality of second vertical channel structures formed through the second stacked structure, wherein the plurality of second vertical channel structures are respectively connected to the plurality of first vertical channel structures. The semiconductor device additionally includes an isolating layer for isolating the plurality of second vertical channel structures into first and second regions. Both sidewalls of the isolating layer contact sidewalls of the second vertical channel structures of the plurality of second vertical channel structures positioned at the boundary between the first and second regions.
