Abstract
A semiconductor device includes a first and a second areas. The first area includes a plurality of first conductive stripes extending along a lateral direction and spaced from one another along a vertical direction, a first memory layer extending along the vertical direction, a first semiconductor layer extending along the vertical direction and coupled to a portion of the first memory layer, and second and third conductive stripes extending along the vertical direction, wherein the second and third conductive stripes are coupled to end portions of a sidewall of the first semiconductor layer. The second area includes a plurality of conductive sheets extending along the lateral direction and spaced from one another along the vertical direction, a second memory layer extending along the vertical direction and wrapped by the plurality of conductive sheets, and a second semiconductor layer extending along the vertical direction and wrapped by the second memory layer.
