Memory cell having source or drain electrode with kink portion, memory array and manufacturing method thereof

Abstract

A 3D memory array including multiple memory cells and a method of manufacturing the same are provided. Each memory cell includes a first isolation structure, source and drain electrodes, a gate layer, a channel layer and a memory layer. The source and drain electrodes are disposed on opposite sides of the first isolation structure, and the source and drain electrodes comprise kink portions. The gate layer is disposed beside the source and drain electrodes and the first isolation structure. The channel layer is disposed between the gate layer and the source electrode, the first isolation structure and the drain electrode, and the channel layer extends between the source and drain electrodes and covers the kink portions of the source and drain electrodes. The memory layer is disposed between the gate layer and the channel layer and extends beside the gate layer and extends beyond the channel layer.
