Abstract
A semiconductor device includes circuit elements on a first substrate; gate electrodes on a second substrate and stacked to be apart from each other in a first direction; sacrificial insulating layers on a lower through-insulating layer penetrating the second substrate, stacked to be spaced apart from each other in the first direction, and having side surfaces opposing the gate electrodes; channel structures penetrating the gate electrodes, extending vertically on the second substrate, and including a channel layer; a first separation pattern penetrating the gate electrodes and including a first barrier pattern and a first pattern portion extending from the first barrier pattern in a second direction; and a second separation pattern penetrating the gate electrodes, disposed to be parallel to the first separation pattern, and extending in the second direction. Some of the side surfaces of the sacrificial insulating layers may overlap the first barrier pattern in a third direction.
