Abstract
An operation method for a 3D NAND flash includes writing data into a WLn layer of the plurality of wordline layers of an unselect bit line of the plurality of bit lines in a write operation; and applying a first pass voltage on at least a first WL layer of the plurality of wordline layers of the unselect bit line of the plurality of bit lines and applying a second pass voltage on at least a second WL layer of the plurality of wordline layers of the unselect bit line of the plurality of bit lines; wherein the first pass voltage is lower than the second pass voltage to reduce a difference of channel potential between the WLn layer and the at least a first WL layer when a pre-pulse phase is removed from a verify phase.
