Operation method of memory device, and operation method of memory controller controlling memory device

Abstract

Disclosed is an operation method of a memory device that includes a memory block including a plurality of cell transistors stacked in a direction perpendicular to a substrate. The plurality of cell transistors may include a ground selection transistor and an erase control transistor. The erase control transistor may be between the substrate and the ground selection transistor. The operation method may include performing a first erase operation on the ground selection transistor, performing a first program operation on the erase control transistor after the first erase operation, performing a second program operation on the ground selection transistor after the first program operation, and performing a second erase operation on the erase control transistor after the second program operation.
