Abstract
The present technology relates to a semiconductor memory device and a method of manufacturing the same. The semiconductor memory device includes a stack with a plurality of interlayer insulating layers and a plurality of gate electrodes alternately stacked on a substrate, and a plurality of channel structures passing through the stack in a vertical direction. Each of the plurality of channel structures includes a core insulating layer, a channel layer, a tunnel insulating layer, and a charge storage layer that vertically extend in the same direction as the plurality of channel structures, and a dielectric constant of a partial region of the core insulating layer is lower than a dielectric constant of another region of the core insulating layer.
