Abstract
A memory device, a method of manufacturing the same, and an electronic apparatus including the same. The memory device includes: a plurality of cell active layers vertically stacked on a substrate, each cell active layer including a lower source/drain region and an upper source/drain region located at different vertical heights and a channel region between the lower source/drain region and the upper source/drain region; a gate stack on the substrate and extending vertically relative to the substrate to pass through the cell active layers, the gate stack including a gate conductor layer and a memory functional layer arranged between the gate conductor layer and the cell active layers, and a memory cell being defined at an intersection of the gate stack and each cell active layer; and a conductive metal layer arranged on a lower surface of each cell active layer and/or an upper surface of each cell active layer.
