Abstract
A semiconductor device includes a substrate including a memory cell region and a connection region, a plurality of gate electrodes in the memory cell region and the connection region, a plurality of channel structures passing through the plurality of gate electrodes and extending in a vertical direction in the memory cell region, and a plurality of pad layers extending in a first direction from each of the plurality of gate electrodes in the connection region. The plurality of pad layers is disposed in a stepped form in a second direction. The device further includes a plurality of dummy lines arranged in one row in the first direction between two pad layers adjacent to each other in the second direction and disposed apart from one another with a pad connection region therebetween in the first direction. The pad connection region overlaps two pad layers successively disposed in the first direction.
