Abstract

In certain aspects, a memory device includes an array of memory cells, a plurality of word lines, and a plurality of slit structures. Each memory cell includes a vertical transistor, and a storage unit coupled to the vertical transistor. The array of memory cells is arranged in rows in a first direction and columns in a second direction. Two adjacent rows of the memory cells are staggered with one another, and two adjacent columns of the memory cells are staggered with one another in a plan view. Each word line extends in the second direction. Each slit structure extends in the second direction and separating two adjacent word lines of the plurality of word lines in the first direction.
