A three-dimensional semiconductor memory device includes a first substrate, a peripheral circuit structure with peripheral transistors on the first substrate, a second substrate on the peripheral circuit structure, a lower insulating layer in contact with a side surface of the second substrate, a top surface of the lower insulating layer having a concave profile, a first stack on the second substrate, the first stack including repeatedly alternating first interlayer dielectric layers and gate electrodes, and a first mold structure on the lower insulating layer, the first mold structure including repeatedly alternating sacrificial layers and second interlayer dielectric layers, and a top surface of the first mold structure being at a level lower than a topmost surface of the first stack.

Three-dimensional semiconductor memory device and electronic system including the same

A memory device includes an array of floating gate memory cells. Adjacent memory cells are separated by a plurality of air gaps that electrically decouple respective active regions of adjacent memory cells from one another. Additionally, the air gaps electrically decouple an active region of a memory cell from a floating gate of an adjacent memory cell.

Memory device and method of fabricating the same

A semiconductor device includes a substrate including a first region and a second region, a gate group disposed in the first region of the substrate, the gate group including a plurality of cell gate patterns and at least one selection gate pattern, a first gate pattern disposed in the second region of the substrate, a group spacer covering a top surface and a side surface of the gate group, the group spacer having a first inflection point, and a first pattern spacer covering a top surface and a side surface of the first gate pattern, the first pattern spacer having a second inflection point.
