A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device includes preparing a substrate including cell regions and a scribe lane region, forming circuit blocks in the cell regions of the substrate, the substrate including a first surface and a second surface, forming a bias pad on the first surface of the substrate, such that the bias pad is in the scribe lane region of the substrate, bonding a deuterium exchange structure to the second surface of the substrate, implanting deuterium into the deuterium exchange structure using plasma processing, and applying a first voltage to the bias pad, such that the deuterium is diffused from the deuterium exchange structure into the substrate through the second surface of the substrate.

In a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device, a first insulation layer and a first sacrificial layer are alternately and repeatedly formed on a substrate to form a mold layer. A sacrificial layer structure is formed on the mold layer to include an etch stop layer and a second sacrificial layer sequentially stacked. After forming a hard mask on the sacrificial layer structure, the sacrificial layer structure and the mold layer are etched by a dry etching process using the hard mask as an etching mask to form a channel hole exposing an upper surface of the substrate and form a recess on a sidewall of the second sacrificial layer adjacent to the channel hole. A memory channel structure is formed in the channel hole. The first sacrificial layer is replaced with a gate electrode.
