Abstract
Provided is a semiconductor device. The semiconductor device includes: a plurality of insulating layers and a plurality of gate electrodes alternately arranged in a first direction; and a plurality of channel structures passing through the plurality of gate electrodes and the plurality of insulating layers in the first direction, wherein each of the plurality of gate electrodes includes: a first conductive layer including an inner wall surrounding the plurality of channel structures; and a second conductive layer that is separated from the plurality of channel structures in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction, wherein resistivity of the second conductive layer is less than resistivity of the first conductive layer.
