Abstract

A memory device includes a stack structure and a first beam structure. The memory device includes array regions and an intermediate region arranged between the array regions in a first lateral direction. The stack structure includes a first block and a second block arranged in a second lateral direction. Each of the first block and the second block includes a wall-structure region. In the intermediate region, the wall-structure regions of the first block and the second block are separated by a staircase structure. The first beam structure is located in the intermediate region and extends along the second lateral direction. The first beam structure is connected to the wall-structure regions of the first block and the second block. The first beam structure includes first dielectric layers and electrode layers that are alternately stacked.
