Abstract

Disclosed are semiconductor devices and electronic systems including the same. The semiconductor device includes a stack structure including electrodes vertically stacked on a semiconductor layer, a source semiconductor pattern between the semiconductor layer and the stack structure, a support semiconductor pattern between the stack structure and the source semiconductor pattern, and a vertical structure penetrating the stack structure, the support semiconductor pattern, and the source semiconductor pattern. The vertical structure includes a vertical channel pattern in which a part of a sidewall is in contact with the source semiconductor pattern. The vertical channel pattern includes an upper portion adjacent to the stack structure, a lower portion adjacent to the source semiconductor pattern, and a middle portion adjacent to the support semiconductor pattern. The upper portion has a first diameter. The lower portion has a second diameter. The middle portion has a third diameter less than the first and second diameters.
