Abstract

An example memory device includes a first memory cell string, word lines and processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to apply a first verify bias voltage on a selected word line and apply a first bias voltage on a first word line in a pre-verify stage. The processing circuitry is further configured to apply a second verify voltage on the selected word line, apply a first pass voltage on a second word line, apply a second pass voltage on a third word line, and apply a second bias voltage on the first word line in a verify stage. The second bias voltage is smaller than the first bias voltage. At least one of the first pass voltage and the second pass voltage is larger than the second bias voltage.
